Definitely looks repairable, but you're gonna need access to a frame machine or a floor pull system. I have heard people fastening a chain to a rail end and using a tree or well anchored object, throw the car in reverse and pull it back out. I dont recommend it, but gotta work with what you got. Otherwise I would get a quote from a body shop, its not uncommon for people to come in just wanting frame work. Also if you're able to remove the bumper and grill for easier access it might be cheaper as it would be less work for the tech. I'm gonna say 4 to 8 hours of repair time, and cost will depend on the frame labor rate in your area. Ours is about 55 to 60 dollars an hour.

just the drivers side. im not too sure outside this lateral displacement, but i think the hood to fender gaps is ok -- probably could be better once the damaged fender surround and crumpled corner frame inside are fixed.
