Default Before and After pics.. did I get screwed??

Can't tell too much from these pictures, but there's still a slight gap from the grill and the bumper, but I figure if I get a new bumper that will be solved and when I get a new hood the gap between the headlight/fender will be gone too.. or at least when I get those they can pull the radiator suport out a little more to where there is none.. but for now did I get screwed, they charged me $75 for this..

they pulled the radiator support forward..

under the hood I can a difference though, before I couldn't get my hand between the radiator and heat shield but now there's a good size gap plus they fixed some sort of alignment becuase my headlight finally shines on the road in front of me instead of straigt downwards..

I kind of feel like I got ripped.. I figure there wouldn't be any kind of gap left over but I assume even with new hood/bumper the same gaps would be there..

*sigh* i suppose whenever I can save up $1k i'll get it done right..

well then I'm just basically screwed, because the shop I went to did this on the side, so really no receipt or anything..

i guess I'll just end up waiting until i get my tax rebate to get it fixed right..

*sigh*

:sad:
