Default killed ka

after a great day out to lyddenhill sunday i got home and found my daughter had binned her ka which left her o/s front wheeltucked under due to a bent wishbone.ive stripped it down and shes done the leg also.it looks like i can change all these but where thedriveshaft was pushed back its dented the front mount for the wishbone support bracket.the bracket is ok but looks like it would be a pain to remove the bolt at anytime.can anyone tell me if this would be a problem at the next mot thanks

is it the subframe that's damaged>? aslong as it's not severly reduced in strenght or damaged severly then it will just be a pass and advise but it depends on the tester at the end of the day
