Question Bumper gap on driver side front

I haven't seen any relevant results under search so I decided to create a new thread here. I bought my 05 G35 sedan couple of days before New Years last year and within a week somebody nudged the front bumper overnight. (I know, SF parking is a PITA) As a result, the front driver side has a slight gap of 3 mm between the bumper and the adjoining panel. Newb question, but I was wondering if body shops can fix this at a reasonable price or can I fix it myself?

I agree. If you're going to do it, do it right. There is a lot of work I can do to my car myself, but body work isn't on that list.

+3 you could take it off them put it back on. There is some DIY videos for that. But I wouldn't try anything beyond that.

try turning ur steering wheel to the right all the way, remove a few of the clips with a flat head screwdriver from the splash guard to get in to that are and tighten the two 10mm bolts that are right there by the turn signal and see if that will fix the problem, i think it would work
