2015 Yaris L Fender replacement [Help needed..!!!]

My car is involved in an accident.
The entire driver side fender is bent and crushed in this accident.

I removed the front lamp and mud guard and tied up the hanging cables.

Now I want to replace Fender.

I think it will be just remove the current Fender and straighten some stuff and I will done.

Is this is easy to do it myself??

I am thinking of buying parts from
https://metrotoyotapartsnow.com/part...agramCallOut=1

Any help and suggestions???

Don't you need a new bumper too?

It looks like the bumper is missing a piece.

The area which is drawn with red around it, is missing on your bumper.

Take a look at the picture here:

I think you may need a significant amount of work under the hood before you'll simply be able to bolt on a new fender, bumper, and headlight. In your photo, things look rather mangled in there!

I checked under the hood, there is no visible damage, and moreover I drove like 40miles or so after the brush off with divider

Agreed w/ kimona. Looks like you're going to need a BFH to get the sheet metal back into factory position before anything can be bolted back up. Might just be the picture, but it doesn't look like a simple R&R.

I would take it to a body shop for a free estimate and determine exactly what needs to be done. The body shop will give you a print-out of the work/parts required. Then, you can take it from there.

BTW, don't you have insurance?

My insurance doesn't cover my car

I'm really hoping that you are insured but have opted out of the coverage that would cover your particular type of accident, ie comprehensive.
