I think you will need to bring it to a body shop to check it out.. could be the hood, the bumper, the frame.. it's hard to say...

I've been looking for a hatch but we don't have the greatest selection up in here in New Brunswick, Canada....we got trees though whoopee

If it is a small gap you can adjust the two rubber bumpstops(dont know real term) to make it sit lower. My car had this issue, but all is good now.

Good luck,

my hatch is the same way pull the front bumper off and you can tell if it has been hit in the front.. i found out once i pulled the bumper off. the front bar was totally smacked!!!

yeah i tried everything to try to get it all straight. but that bar down by the radiator was a little bent. does that mean the front of my car will never be straight ???? or can this be fixed

Anything can be fixed, just whether or not it's worth your time and money. If the car drives true, it may be a good sign that the frame isn't damaged. But you should still get it checked out by a reputable body shop. As for the hood, you should be able to adjust the rubber posts, as mentioned above. They screw in to lower the hood, and you can kinda unscrew them to raise how the hood sits. You might also want to check the hood mechanism that holds the hood down when you close it.

Could have smacked something small sounds like tha red. core is kinda bent outta shape. take it to a body shop.
