The glass backcover is relatively easy to replace, but since you don't have the machine to glue it back to the phone, very little chance of to retain waterproof.

The metal frame? In order to replace that, you have completely take your phone apart. I suggest you talk to your local Sony service centre, see if they can do it for you, with you paying the parts and labour for this repair.

Contact your local Xperia care and ask how much they will charge you to replace the housing and or the back panel or screen

Only they can answer that question, think about it, if either the housing, flaps/covers, back panel, screen, speakers, etc are damaged there's no way that the adhesive could do so, you need to get it inspected.
