So.... I replaced my pop-up headlight yesterday. It's so nice when they flip up and down. I forgot how much I missed the sound of the pop-up headlight motors. I also missed having light shining forward on the left side instead of to the left and at the ground. I need to do some adjusting still to get it line up a little better, but I think the hood got messed up a little more than I thought so that's also not helping with that.
Night of accident:

I just need to get some primer, factory color paint in a can, and clear coat so I can repaint it the right color, but it will work for now. The fender was hammered out, so it does look a tad better than right after the accident, but it's starting to rust now because of the cracked paint, and so is the hood where the previous headlight assembly smashed into it :(

If it doesn't open good , what do I need? cause mine open and closes right but it is like unaligned or something... Do I need a new casing or all the head light!
