Man i know i suck at spelling but u have to slow down some when typing. LOL how bad is it bent? U might have to take it to a body shop and have them set it up on a frame rack. To pull everything back to were its suppose to be. Or u will never be able to get all the lines backs(gaps).

if the subframe is bent then its not even really worth fixing it, unless you love the car

Thirdgens are plentiful right now. Like Jay said you could try to straighten it. At least get an estimate. If it is too pricy part if for your next thirdgen. Remember these cars ride low so suspension/frame is key to a comfortable ride. Really depends on how bad and how big your wallet is.
