Headlight Fitment

Hello, So today I was looking at the car and I noticed that the Driver-side headlight and foglamp was at a slight angle from where it was hit on the nose. I bought the car from someone so I have no clue how it happened. Is there a way to fix this without straighting it with a screw driver?

There is an up and down, left to right adjustment but there's no adjustment for rotation.

Open the hood and look at the mounting for the headlight bucket itself. Maybe one of the adjusters is broken.

If the car was hit, no telling if something is bent unless you look at it.

What he said^. You'll probably have to remove the headlight and have a look inside at the mounting bracket. It should just be made from thin metal and may be broken or if your lucky just bent a little and can be straighten with short needle-nose.
