so i had to replace the entire front clip and core support after my brother put my car through an accident. im trying to remember where the placement of the hood clasp was but i seem to be way off as you can see in the fifth picture. i think i need to place the latch on the hood directly in the center but there are no bolt holes there. any info on this or helpful pics would be awesome thanks.

Here's a pic of mine. Looks to me that your missing the latch "mount assembly" on the rad support and have your latch mounted directly onto the rad support.
See what my latch is mounted to?
