is your core support bent or sumtin, have you ever been in any accidents because core supports are a bitch to take out and put a new one in, you have to drill all the spot welds out and its not very fun.

Looks like your front end was in a previous accident. If you pay close attention to the driver's side fender, it's off from the hood. I am not sure if a new rad support will fix it if the mounting point is bent.

front end looks like a collage.. def bodyshop candidate

anybody have this corrected before? can it be bent back, or would it involve new parts and a big bill?

Looks like lining up issues. One thing it could be the core /radiator support. Next thing it could be is hood/bumper/fender alignment. Ive had the fender not match up with the hood as seen in your pic, but it was fixed with moving the hood a little back and turning those height adjusters found under the hood, on the core support and raised up to the height of the fenders.
Peace and gluck

Try taking off your front bumper and lifting up the sagging side by the bumper support and such with a big Jack or something. Try straightening the radiator support if it is a lil bent on the top part. If it doesnt help, then the best thing would be taking your car to a body shop or somebody with experience.
Good Luck

Do a visual inspection first, with the bumper off. If it's something you can fix yourself, more power to you. But yeah that hood needs some adjusting

my front end is a bit unaligned too. i went to a body shop and they said they'd realign it for like $100. in my case, everything lines up correctly except where the hood meets the bumper. you can literally touch the hood latch while the hood is closed.
