      I know. I'm just trying to get everything to fit. I don't think im going to fix the alignment issues the panels have.

        IMO your fenders are either way off or you have structural damage. Where and how was the car hit?

          Fix hinge first. If those fenders are bolted on correctly....whoa boy.

            I'm gonna put my $ on structural damage due to the reason that from the pics it looks like the crush points on the inner right fender apron have been crushed.

              I'm assuming the front. I bought the car and the pass light was broke and there was scuffs on the bumper. I made a thread in here a few weeks ago showing damage to the aprons that must be from a different wreck. Core support is straight

                I am going to say the whole nose of that car went from left to right(when looking at pics). Core support probably is fine, since it was hit on the passenger side front corner.

                  I'm new at identifying these type of things. This car has a lot of mods but I noticed this and it is swaying me from picking it up. What do ya'll think

                    Pass side to driver side?
                    It had to have been. Hit prior to the damage it had when i bought it cause the damage it had was so minute

                        You might be able to adjust the fenders and the hood to get everything to fit, but its not going to fit well with the structural damage.

                                check the fender gap by the driver's cowl panel, you can see where it's shifted off of center.
