Looks from you pics that the bumper is the issue, and not the fender. With that being said, there is a "clip" or whatever you want to call it. It's a metal piece that goes in between the fender and the front bumper there where you see that gap. I'd pull the front end and check to see if that it bent.

not tooooo bad. those light scratches may be able to be buffed out. as for the misalignment, your goin to need a new metal support tab that sits behind the bumper next to the fender. from those pictures it looks like its twisted and sent those white clips flying. if u were to bring it to my body shop i could only see it costing 5-600$ if i had to detail paint and get the new parts or if those scratches buff out prob around 2-300$ good luck.

Damn, that sucks hard ***** man. It does not look to bad though, but it will probably cost around $250-$500 to fix depending on where you go.

Sucks. Any available parking lot video cameras? Hit and Run drivers should be flogged! I know all too well the shitty feeling walking up to your parked car to find it messed up.
Best of luck with the repairs

yup that sucks.. most likely needs a stiffener that sits in there between the bump and fender.. there is a little seal in there too you should replace as well..

both parts are cheap
