fixing a buckled guard - worth it?

I had a minor accident a couple of months ago where someone reversed into my guard and buckled it and broke my headlight too. The guard got pushed in a bit (could tell because the line between the bonnet and the guard was much less than it was before). The repair guy told me he could fix the current guard but im having doubts. His gonna have to use bog on the guard obviously so im wondering if the paint finish would still come out 100% perfect as if he just painted steel, also how would it last the test of time? The mounts might be bent and all and im kinda worried that it wont come out 100% perfect. Could these buckled guards still be saved or am i best of just buying another perfect guard and making him paint that? Anyone have past experiences with fixing and painting a badly damaged guard? Its just that i plan on keeping my skyline for a long time and i want it to be perfect. Im mostly worried about how the paint finish will look now and over time and if he could pull the guard out from where the bolts are in the engine bay and line them up mint and and i want the mounts to line up 100% i.e i want it to be like a brand new guard. Is that possible for the smash repairer to do or should i just give him a new guard and get him to paint that? Thanks

Here is the picture of the guard in question :

Get a new guard. The test of time: a single piece of steel is sturdier than bog.

There's enough R34 GT/GTT guards floating around to avoid the headache

What's the cost difference? Done the maths (thinking that the guard is fixable)?

Can't you get the other person to pay for a new guard since they reversed into you?

 

I would just get another guard if you want it to be perfect.
