Default Front bumper alignment

For some reason my front bumper is now rubbing against part of my hood. I guess someone must have hit it w/o doing any physical damage to the outside of it. How much work is it and what all is involved as far as getting it ligned back up right? I dont want to leave it this way because everytime I open the hood it rubs and im afraid that it may eventually start to crack the fiberglass on the hood itself.

Shawn: The front bumper has many adjustments to align with the hood. The adjustments are very easy if you have some wrenches/sockets. If you can send a photo of where your alignment issues are, I may can help you. I have removed the entire bumper assy on my 89 three times in the last three years. samlam@charter.net
