Default Fixing Bent Bumper
My front bumper slants as if it has been in an accident.
I would like to fix straighten the bumper. Is this something I can do myself? and if so, how do I realign the bumper?

most likely the brackets are just bent.. take off the front bumper and check for bent brackets.. if they are bent either get new ones or fix the current ones..
