Question Need Help. I Would Appreciate It

Alrite a few months ago i hit a bankment with my car when it was icy out. I hit the bankment an my left quarter panel pushed towards the hood an my bottom bumper pushed to the rite also and my nose cone did too an my right quarter panel pushed to the right also it only is off alignment by i would say a cm or less. I looked an the brackets holding the nose cone were obviously bent to the right. If i bend those brackets straight out again do you think the quarter panels an bumper an everything will align? Cuz it seems as if everything is attached to that nose cone? If not does anyone have suggestions becuz im in desperate need of fixing it ASAP and i need all the help an ideas i can get. THank you very much

There are reasons body shops make big money aligning body panels.

It's unlikely that you'll ever get it perfect again. You can try to fix it, but chances are it'll never ever be like it was.

alrite well im gonna try and fix it i think ill be able to get it back cuz it all went the same way an i believe the nose cone is wat pushed everything so if i re align it it will be normal again it may not be EXACT but it will be pretty damn close that u wont notice it unless u take exact measurements or u look at it like half an inch away. Its not a major change the push was a cm or less over not by much not like the panels r bent outragously and EVERYTHING shifted over.
