You’re right, I see it now.

Yeah you got damage. See where the resonator next to the air box should be connected to the crossbeam? There's a crease there that shouldn't be.

You could try loosening and sliding the latch downwards, but I don't think there will be enough adjustment room as-is. Did you get a chance to look under the car for damage? You might need a bit more than an alignment to put it right again.

Adding pics of mine for comparison.

I broke the air box thing off myself when I was trying to adjust the latch...

I’ll have to look at the comparison pictures when I get to a computer. Any suggestions on how to realign this? Is that cross beam replaceable? I’m at work with a different car so can’t check it this moment.

The upper and vertical brace are. The lower looks like it is welded. I haven't had the car torn down this far, yet. Hopefully the lower cross member is not damaged.

The vertical center brace is separate, I don't know why it doesn't show that way in this diagram.

Thanks everyone this has been extremely helpful. I’ll be going over everything and probably taking it to an auto body shop for a quote if I can’t seem to get it straightened out. I really appreciate all the input!
