CA Need help fixing car

Riding in my 1987 n/a coupe in the rain today and my tires had no thread and I was turning. My car started to slide and I hit the curb hard enough to scratch the rim and set the alignment off at least by 90 degrees I think. Don't know much about Rx-7's but I started searching around and found the picture of what was bent. I know need know how to fix it, please help. I need to know how much is the cost and how hard for installations. Thank you.

Your wheel bent 90* ? That is from l to --

The pic is your steering rack. A used one might only run you like 45-50 bucks depending on your local junk yards but new they cost a few hundred dollars. Since you don't know much about working on cars i'd suggest having a shop do the work for you.
