Sleepy eye style? If there way off aligned sounds like you need new headlight covers.

NO new headdlight Covers..the Headlight linkage is Screwed up and most likely one of the Arms has popped out of it's bushing.That would make the headlight Cover Not go all the way down,or sit lower than the one that Is NOT damaged.Also check the Retractor Motor mount.It may be bent.You will have to take off the Brake ducts to get to it.
