Here's a pic of the car as it sits. How can this be fixed?
Is this just a misaligned hood and sagging bumper or would the fenders need to
be taken off too in order to get everything in proper setting.
TIA

i have the exact same problem. so people take off the bumper brace to reduce weight? do they usually sell them when they take it off? because i dont mind putting back on a few extra pounds to fix my appearance

Good Job and you are right lots of adjustment can be done.
It is easier if you have someone to help, but you can do it by your self.
Start by losening the hinge bolts on the hood. you will also need to losen the latch and the middle part that holds the bumper. A good trick is to get a paint stir stick and place it between the fend and hood. That is about the gap spacing, give or take every car is different.
Even up the gap between the fenders and make sure it is line up front to back. Make small adjustments and slowly open and close the hood. Dont force anything.
it is really simple.
PM if you need more help
