Help!! Any Ideas?

Any Ideas?!!! HELP!!
Well, I have a 95 camry v4 - 4 door.. It has minor problems such as the hood (wont close properly), the front bumper is pushed in (from a crash), and the side door is scratched. I have decided to take upon the task to fix the car up and hook it up. The only problem is that I have looked at a few sites but I havent gotten any good ideas. If anyone can help with a few pics, faqs, links, etc (really ANYTHING would help rightbout now).

PS: thanks for the time.

I had the same problem when a SUV backed up into my hood and bend it at the crumple zone. I bent it back into its proper shape using just my hands. I did it in 5 minutes.
But it depends on how bad the damage is. Do you have any pics?

Why dont you come to the Toyota Nation Meet and maybe we can help you hands on there. Where in NY are you? The meet should be in the Bronx. Try coming, it will be really cool.

Heres the link: http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/t33477.html

There is a stright brace that connects to the bottom of the frame to the hood lock. You might be able to lose the nuts and bolts (10mm i think) and re-align the lock to lock the hood. You will have to take the grill out. That way, you can losen the bolts, lock the hood, and then retighten the bolts and it should lock. That depends on how bad the damage is though. Good luck.
