exactly the damage is between teh passenger fender and the headlight. the headlight has been hit too with the battery rubbing against the frame. id sell this but because its my dd i just want it fixed.

take to a shop with a frame puller, and get it straightened

that's not your frame, thats the radiator support. The metal there is pretty thin, get some good leather gloves on and muscle that thing back to where ti bolts up good, if your arms are too small, get the good ole hammer out to move that metal where you want it, not too hard.

^^ No i don't think thats where he's talking about. Is the upper part of the engine bay, where the top of the fenders bolt. I have the same problem cause my car got hit a little while ago, now my hood and fenders don't line up.

correct, the car was hit front the side so now the fender and the hood doesnt line up. i could take it to a body shop and get it pulled but i wouldnt be able to get back the bolts aligned properly.
