With the front quarter panels and front bumper on the car, is there a visible VIN on those parts?
Fender should have a vin by the shock tower.
Hoods rarely get damaged by themselves, so I wouldn't doubt the front left(driver side) was repaired also. Bumper cover could have been replaced as that side sits low.
