Yes! another thing I wanted to mention. The fenders themselves appear to be completely undamaged, however I can't get the new hood to line up with them. There's always an inconsistent gap between them, same with the gap between the fenders and the bumper.

Fine, they're consistent with the rest of the body panel gaps on the car.

damn, what a bitch this is, one of the fender gotta be bent maby in such a small way you can tell like mine but a whole inch doesnt make any sense to me maby it bent the frame under the car in such a way it dodge'd the fenders if that makes any sense

The flash on my camera isn't as great as I thought it was. I guess I'll have to wait until daylight.
