If you dont know what you are doing do not attempt it.
You would have to cut/drill your damaged support out and then measure and weld the new one in. Measuring has to be spot on or you will have a hood that doesnt shut and fenders,bumpers and headlights that wont line up correctly. Do you even know how to weld?

They arent hard to find if you need one. You will need spot weld bits and a welder or someone that can weld it for you.

If you are worried about the alignment or don't weld you might find a collision shop that does this stuff all the time. If you have AAA you could take everything apart you can (drilling spot welds isn't that hard with the right bit check youtube) and so on then call a flatbed bring the new support with the car and have them do the rest. It will be cheaper that way. Just set it up with the shop before hand. Some shops won't do it.
