Yes it would need a new front panel and slam panel. What is the rest of the car like though?

nope the bit at the bottom is your front bottom cross member and they are not cheap to buy but they can be repaired quite easily if you are good with a welder
if not get someone to do it! it keeps the front of the square some of your major mounts are on here so needs to be pucker!
