That is a job for a professional and would cost more to do than the car is worth. If it's that big of an issue, find another car.
That's about the dumbest f'ing response I have ever heard. You have no idea the condition of his car or its worth!! Please find another forum to post dumbass comments on as most of the ppl here are already tired of them. For someone that's supposed to be a "suspension guru" you just showed how truely stupid you are. Now GTFO!!!
To the op, MJR46 just did his himself. I'm sure he will chime in, if not send him a pm. He'll be happy to help you out.
if you're talking about the whole frame then no it really isnt that hard to change just a lot of hidden bolts and nuts that you'll have to fill for.I did it on my mom's car and it seemed pretty straight forward

Kid, grow up and learn something. Replacing a FRAME is a MAJOR job in a car and if he has to ask, then he has NO idea what he is getting into, AT ALL. Having a bent sub frame in the FRONT of the car, isn't going to affect the CONVERTIBLE top going up or down in the BACK of the car. If the sub frame AND the unibody is bent THAT badly, the car is toast.
