Take it to a body shop let them look at it.

You know it's thin aluminum..... Probably bowed. But yeah, tell your friends it's not a chair

Friends don't sit on friends cars.

BigBlock427 · 03-16-2011, 08:32 PM

you should sit on him till he is uneven... o

camaro2k10 · 03-16-2011, 08:35 PM

haha! great answers but for some reason wen i looked at it it doesnt appear to be bowed its just like the hood is knocked off alignment to me it may be bowed in but im doubtful thats y i was asking if there was some way to adjust alignment of the sides with the quarter pannels i even figured what could i hurt and layed all the way down on the other side in an attempt to check and see if it evened out i weigh about 50 pounds more than him but it didnt do anything to the other side which made me make the assumption of unalignment

BigBlock427 · 03-16-2011, 08:38 PM

I dont get how he was sitting on the hood... did he climb up on to it... the front bumper sticks out like 6 inches and the fender are the same... was he up on that thing like swinging his feet and stuff!?

camaro2k10 · 03-16-2011, 08:43 PM

Probably telling her it was his car? Anyhow anyone who sits on my car is no friend. Sorry to hear of this.

Mr Twisty · 03-16-2011, 09:22 PM

You can post pics, but probably hard to tell. Let a body man look at it.

CruznSS · 03-16-2011, 09:30 PM

Pics would help. How is it misaligned? The posts under hood are adjustable for height. If sheet metal is bowed that won't help. But might make it less noticeable.
