Mainly the hood is slightly off and each fender has issues. Please educated answers only, not just "go back and tell them f*ckers to fix it!". Thanks in advance.
Go back and tell them fuckers to fix it!
No really. That is not an acceptable repair. The hood is canted a bit to the right and that is what is causing the gap in the bumper and the different sized gaps at the fender. It is a relatively simple adjustment.
The inserts really are not that bad and probably within spec though.
