cool video about posers holding a couple hundred bucks infront of some shithole they all probably call home, wouldnt be surprised if your one of them
serious answer for the op: yes it can be fixed, pick up a new fender, bumper, headlight assembly, and maybe a hood, cant tell if its damaged,(this should all be easy to come by and cheap from a scrap yard, person parting a car, or someone who just bought a kit/ conversion) have a friend or two over, take it apart, rig up the new stuff to where it looks good, if mounting points dont line up, smash them with a BFH (big funkin hammer) until they do line up, or at least get them close then re-drill the hole. bolt it all on, make sure it lines up properly, then remove the parts that need to be painted again, hit up google and find a few painting how-to's. then put it all back on, tah-dah!
its not the 100% proper way to do it, but its a 20 year old nissan not a new lexus.
before you do all of this measure the wheel base center to center on each side and make sure it hasnt shifted, take the wheel of and make sure there is no kinks in the frame rail and that the mounting points for any suspension has not moved. once again, best is to ask a buddy to come check it out for a 2nd opinion.
I wouldnt take it to a shop, again its a old nissan....
you may need to spend $200 on parts, $100 on paint and idk $250 on tools (not sure what you have to work with) but its going to be wayyyyy cheaper than the body shop, around here judging by your pic I would say its a $2400 fix.
if you are unsure of a process, or the condition of something, ask a friend, take a pic and post it on here, or google away.
