sorry man, I cant help you much. Are you installing a new hood on a car that does not have one, or are you re-installing the parts you took off?

All you do is take all the bolts and push rivots outs, theres no secrets to it, but you will need two people to do he hood and bumper. Theres 4 bolts holding the hood on, and bolts and push rivots on everything else, I could give you a more detailed description but you did'nt even list what make, model, year the car is?

Ok for the bumper theres 4 bolts inside of the fender well they are kind of hard to get to but just turn your wheel so you can pull the fender well out some reach up in there with I think a 12mm socket wrench and losen them, and the rest for the most part is just a matter of getting all the push rivots out. The hood is self explanatory 4 bolts take them out and remove the hood but make sure you remove the ground wire thats attached underneath the hood also it looks like a flattened braided hose, the fenders unbolt from inside the engine bay along the top right and left sides.

Well in my case I cant open the hood due to the accident. So should i use a saw to cut around the hinge or what?
