Default Fix or partout?

I have a red 96 country with 148k, stock. Was mint until I rear ended a 2014 acadia. It pretty much wrecked the front plastics, bumper, left fender, everything in front of the engine. Should I try to repair it or sell it?
What is a fair price to ask if selling it?
Interior is mint, engine and tranny mint, doors, glass,hood , hatch mint

I picked up a front for mine (93) from the front doors forward (fenders, doors, hood, bumper, header complete with everything) for $250 off of a Comache on Craigslist. I plan to pound out the supporting structure or replace some metal to install. My hood was good but I am replacing that also due to hail damage. I might replace the good fender so my Cherokee will say Comache . You can get a replacement radiator for pretty cheap. What else is broken?

Buy an XJ that was rear-ended and graft the two together! Front subframe is what's really going to matter. A little sheet metal is fine

If you part it out, can I get your thermistor? jeep p/n 55035503. If you do a partout I might want your driver seat too. Also the rear seat fold down tabs.
