yah the holes are bigger than the bolts so theres some fudge room

 

baldy you can do my coachwork anytime lol



are you sure the whole car isnt bent?

 

if you end up breaking the bolts between the bumper and

the hood they whole piece from mazda is like $14.



soak them in some penetrating oil for a day or so prior, but

it sounds like you hit something for everything to be out of wack

like that, there is a welded support in there, hopefully you didnt

bang that up

 

I've looked up behind the fender, there's a triagular support that is bent out of shape. But it was too tough to bend it from under the car, at a weird angle. j9fd3s described it to me, as something that would happen if the previous owner ran kinda over/on something (wall?), as the metal supports under the bumper/headlight are all banged up too.



And no, I'm not sure my whole car isn't bent, but I figured I'll start with what I know is bent.
