I would rather have been driving an M-body than a Ford Focus.

I haven't made it to the junk yard that I got my rocker panel trim to see how good the front is on that one. But if it's bad and I find one how easy is it to trade a diplomat or furry front clip?

Looks like whole front clip messed up or can it be straightened out and just the grille can be replaced. Its far easier to just repair the grille. Hard to tell if the whole clip is just bent, or if it has to be all replaced.

Sorry didn't mean the whole front clip but the grille and fider glass parts

The hardest part is separating the 3 nuts off the 3 studs on each side that hold the header to the fenders.
After that it's easy. The "new" one probably won't line up as well as the old one and you'll have to fidget with adjusting it until you either are happy or say fuck it.
The studs will probably break out of the fiberglass header. I recommend JB Water Weld to epoxy them back in for the reinstall
