Radiator support replacement

I have a 2005 Eddie Bauer Expy with the rotted-out radiator support syndrome. I went through some threads including an excellent one on this forum on replacing it. Rock Auto actually has the part. It looks like a pretty big job so maybe I should get some quotes from a body shop? I am willing to put some money into the vehicle as it is in excellent shape otherwise with 113,000 miles on it. Any thoughts and advice would be much appreciated.

Considering today's used/new car market, and if everything else is in good shape and you plan on keeping it more than a couple years, I'd definitely invest the time or money. Getting a couple quotes on a big job like that will help decide if it's really worth your time personally or money to pay someone.
