its not hard if you can weld and have a welder along with a couple of spot weld drill bits.
you can get the support from nissan, cut one from another car, or check ebay.
pics?
as far as the fender it depends on how bad it is.

You need to drill out all the spot welds, then either find a donor car or purchace one from nissan.
To put it on, you don't even need to weld it back since it doesn't provide any structural safety.

take a picture of the radiator support. as stated in the post above, just go to a junkyard, cut off what you need, cut off whats bent, and weld it in, assuming its not that bad.

if it isnt too extreme you could find a shop that has a frame alignment rack and have it pulled out, that would probably be roughly the same price as if u had someone do it for you, but please post pictures so we can see how bad the damage is and suggust how to go about fixing it

If its the entire thing, its simple.
There are a few tacks on the 'face' of the core, which is what i assume really got damaged.
Drill em off, or use a wedge + BMFHammer, and have at it.
Prep the surface for welds, tack em back on.
And i'd say weld it back on, cuz its better to have something help decrease the impact, and nothing/something flimsy.
Contact Russ, he's a great guy, and seems to always have every part needed.
