my car has left front end damage. The headlights, and fuse box need to be replaced but my biggest problem is the front left side has been pushed back- (the hood isn't latching properly bc it isn't aligned anymore). The red line in the photo is horizontal and shows how much everything has been moved back. Is it possible for me to fix this if so what tools/method should I use or should I pay to have it realigned?

Remove and replace all bent parts. Hopefully the frame didn't bend or moved back.

i actually got into a pretty bad wreck last year and needed to replace a lot of exterior parts (fender, bumper, passenger door side) I didn't have the cash to buy all new parts so my friend told me about copart.com. I bought a 99' camry body and used a lot of the parts to replace my 99 camry. (saved alot of $$ doing it this way) check it out..good luck
