the front bumper just needs to get repainted and touched up, but that fender should be replaced, instead of repaired; mainly because the damage is on a creased surface where the metal bends on an arc...tricky work to do perfectly for a body shop, just replace it instead

Hit n run, that sucks!

I agree with jinsei888, the bumper looks like it can be cleaned up and repainted but the fender should be replaced.

BTW your camera's date is slacking

I posted the link to the fender above. I have no idea who they are tho, I just found them through google.

If you don't wanna go thru them, try contacting performance nissan.
