I have a replacement fender, but some of the other metal (grill surround, inner fender front) are bent. They are not crumpled, just pulled out of shape a little. I'm thinking I could bend them back, maybe pull things together, and bolt them up. Any recommendations on how to rebend without breaking?

No better smell than that of fresh paint. I've been building and painting cars/trucks for 47 years.
