    Dremmel and a heat gun are your friends :laughing: Just know they'll never be perfect. You fix one spot then the spot you just fixed moved so you have to repeat all over again. Put them on and pull them off about a hundred times. It's time consuming but it's kind of fun lol. We also got some gel coat repair stuff to fix any cracking. We also got some stuff that's kind of like JB weld for fiberglass that we used to build up some spots around where the fender screws mounted too.

    I imagine a good variety of washers and such could possibly come in handy.

    Heat gun and some clamps. You just have to do it very....very slowly over a long time. Heat it and bend it a little, clamp, and let it cool. We let ours cool for a day. Our tabs up front that go where the bumper filler is was bent way out. So just slowly bent it back in.

    I wonder what role the roll cage played in everything? It seems bad to punctuate a run on with such a mishap, but it could have been a death sentence..
