Default need help with frame machines/ straightening bodies.

I am just wondering about something because i may have to do it to my car. I swapped firewalls in my car, and the firewalls only tacked in in a few places right now. I went to test fit my fenders to see how they line up and notices that the holes near the front of the car dont quite line up with the holes in my fenders. If i push the fenders all the way towards the back of the car (towards the a pillars, or so their almost touching them) then about half of the hole is showing thru the hole in fender where u need to bolt the fender to the frame.

My question is, can a body shop with frame bending machines etc fix this problem? it almost seems like the front end either has to be bent down a bit, or the engine bay part of the car needs to be pulled forward a bit. If they can do this does anybody know what kind of money this would cost etc? any help would be appreciated, and if people dont understand what im talking about i can take pics. Thanks.
