Update!

My brakes started acting weird the other day so I took the car to have the ABS system scanned for codes and it said "Excessive Acceleration Right Front Wheel"... So my speed sensor in the right front wheel is gone = New hubs required = $200 new... Awesome. Hopefully I can find some used ones for cheaper.

On the good side, the car is running like a champ! And I bought some new exhaust tips for $10. They're in almost new condition with very minor scuffs from sitting in the bed of a truck. They're off of a 2012 Dodge Challenger RT.

FWIW, Timken is the wheel bearing hub of choice. I've used quite a few, and always get them from rockauto (don't let the fork debacle sour it).
$122.79 plus shipping. I'll let you look up your own part #.

Fwiw, it looks like you'd be able to hammer the hood somewhat straight and the bra will still cover it.
Your hood hinges are likely tweaked though, and you'll want to straighten them separately with the hood off.

before I forget, try to save that camaro emblem off the top of the nose... those things are about 40 bucks. If nothing else they look good on a tool box..
