Default 2 problems

I have a 2002 ws6 trans am. I have two problems with my car and I wanted to see if I was the only one. First, not too long after purchasing my car in 2002 I had a flat tire and the shop I took my car to bent the tabs on the bottom of the front fenders. Now, my front fenders bow out slightly and is not noticeable to most people. However, at that time I was unable to prove that they did this to my car. Second, my copdar and stock alarm have started sucking juice out of my battery. Any help would be appreciated.

On the bent tabs just gets some channel locks/pliers and CAREFULLY bend them back into place.

good luck tryin to prove they did it. I had a dealership take paint off a 5in section of the bottom of my front cover, never could prove that they did it, even though they were the only ones to drive it after it got completly deatailed.
