They used some type of pulling machine...they did upward pulls and welded the part that was torn. Also my front radiator support was bend in a little but so they pulled that out as well and now my hood fits pretty much perfect...it doesnt rub on the cowl grille anymore and the gaps are perfect.

I like the arrival blue on the truck, the paint code is 815k, it is a very beautiful color.
