Looks to be but don't want to go breaking anything.
Thank you

All fixed..just popped the ball joint linkage, and removed easily.. Seems mains brackets to baulkhead had been slightly bent. So I "reviewed" them to great success..Headlight is almost flush but any other alignment is down to the front panel..
Also the really badly finished bumper came up really well with some sand paper then wet and dry.. Obviously a bad previous repair job. Also the middle section of the bumper that had been painted black, rubbed back, really well to an original red.. So so many bad repairs quickly and easily resolved to a bumper just needing a blow over and clear coat ..
I'll leave the centre panel (between bumper and bonnet) 90% for now. I'll eventually replace this section but ok its for now after tugging the original back to almost square.
BTW I am really impressed with the BG and how easily everything removes and replaces.. Smart engineering.. a few bolts and anything comes off..
