well it doesn't seem like it. if you are getting the exact measuments again from the accident, then it isn't pulled. take it to a shop with a laser shop to check your chassis.

some bumpers require modification to the front re-bar ... you should've checked before you bought it.

no its a chargespeed but we worked it out, we cut off the bumper support and the cut the bars an inch and moved it up 2 and welded it back on. So its done except for headlight,turn signal,airbag, and my cat-back exhaust system needs to be put in. Here are the pics!
