Looking at good quality replacement parts and non dealer labor ($150/hr), you can fix it for 6k. Sway bar links, shock absorber, control arm: $900 in parts (OEM struts, Mevotech Control Arms) + $150 alignment + 5-7 hours of labor.
Get good parts: original ride quality, not economy, and probably KYB or Gabriel (Monroe has long been a decent brand, but people tend to question their quality these days, especially here on Reddit).
KYB's are usually a better product and def what I would use between the 2 on my cars.
Mine lasted 5 years on my 02.
KYB I have not had any issues with in normal use.
I went with KYB rear struts for my 07 Touring earlier this year and the rear feels tighter and more stable over bumps.
The front suspension is also completely blown out so I was going to replace the struts and rear shocks.
I used the KYB Excel-G struts to replace both fronts on my MR2 Spyder until I got my BC coilovers and they’re fine. Not necessarily any harsher of a ride and they’ve seemed to hold up pretty decent (keep in mind your mileage really may vary as I only did a few thousand miles with them!)
I no longer use any quick struts. The ride sucks and they just don't last.
My kyb quick struts on my sienna lasted about 7 months. One leaked, the other top bearing plate failed.
