Newbie with a problem (hood/bumper gap)
Newbie with a problem (hood/bumper gap)
Hello,
I bought my FD in April knowing that it had hit a deer during its life. I have been doing a lot of reliability mods to it before worrying about any insignifigant (IMO) structural flaws...but this one is bothering me. There is a noticeable gap between the front bumper and hood, and by the hood and the driver's side headlamp. The previous owner said that the frame did not need to be pulled. My question is: is this something I can fix myself? I can do some basic work on it, but do you think it's worth it? Please let me know if anyone else has this issue. I don't think the hood is the problem, but like I stated, I am a newbie so maybe this is a common problem but I have not found anything to say otherwise. I have included a picture that may help. Thanks.
