Ok guys I'll try to describe the best I could ...

I ran into something solid with my stang and damaged the front driver side.

Result :

- front bumper is cracked and doesn't hold up to driver side fender.
- front fender is done as well as headlights and and header panel.
- Metal piece behing header panel is bent.
- front fender backed about 2 inches damaging the fender rail.
- hood is chipped on the side and off about 1/8th of an inch on the passenger side due to the driver side fender backing off I guess.

So my questions are :

Is it possible to bring back the hood hinges to make the hood fit as before ?

Is it hard to install front bumpers and hood and make them fit well ? I'm already set on what parts I want.

Can the metal part behind the header panel be un-bent securely ?

I'll try to get some pics soon.

Thanks for all the help

looks like you did some pretty bad damage. Take it to a body shop, it soudns like that is too much for a garage mechanic to take on.
