Does it need to be fixed???

[shortstop20]

As some of you may know I wrecked my SRX last winter. My brother was looking at it the other day and he said that as long as the bulkhead isn't touching the he doesn't believe it needs to be fixed. I will attach a pic of the bulkhead. What do you guys think??? Should it be replaced? My brother said that we could just replace the front left motor mount and he thinks that the motor would line up correctly then. I would like to get a newer sled but it would be alot cheaper if I could just leave the bulkhead alone on this one and fix the motor mount, steering rod, hood, radius rod and ride it for a few more years. I rode it around home a little bit after I wrecked it and I could definilty notice that the sled didn't have as much power as it did before the accident. So I'm sure the motor isn't in there straight as it should be.
I can take more pics if needed.

thats just the alum skid plate....Pound that out and put a belly pan protector on there.

I took a head on collision at 40 mph and my bulk head held up fine.My left side radius rods,shock,tie rod,trailing arm were torn right off.I checked over my bulkhead real good and i didnt find any cracks.Their pretty tough.

So that's not actually considered part of the bulkhead??? My dealer was trying to sell me a whole NEW bulkhead when I brought it in for an estimate.

that is part of the bulk head but I think thats quite a pile of cash to replace.
