Default Fender/Hood misalignment, can it be fixed?

Long story short, it looks like my fender and/or hood got bent a little from a front passenger side collision. The driver's side looks perfectly fine. I was wondering if it could be 2x4'd and rubber mallet'd back into place, but a good buddy who owns his shop said aluminum only bends once. . .

Anyhow, here are some pics. It would be great if it could be fixed by adjusting the hood, but from the looks of the driver's side alignment, it looks like adjusting it is a no go.
