Default I broke something in the front bumper??

Ok i was jacking my car up by the radiator support like i always do to change my oil. Well when i was jacking it up a heard a bang/pop sound so i let the car down. Now my CF hood has big gaps between it and the headlights and it dosnt seem to latch the whole way. Also my driver side fog light bezzel is poping out and wont go in place. What the hell did i do???

How would bending that affect my hood having a gap? Its higher than the fenders now?

if you bent your rad support up that would make your rad sit higher making everything off

The radiator support is spot welded to the unibody. Jacking the car up from that point is a good way to break those spot welds - that's probably the bang you heard. Once you damage the radiator support, nothing fits. Ever.

For fuck's sake, learn how to spell, and structure your sentences in a relatively coherent way.. People are getting dumber and lazier by the minute.
