i recently crashed my car straight into a curb the tension rods broke and the brackets looked fucked...so i decided to buy new tension rod brackets but they wont align with the front holes on the radiator support.....so i was wondering if anybody had ever had this problem if they could help me out on what i could do to fix this problem..

Frame is bent. Take it to a body shop that has a frame machine. May not be perfect, but it'll hopefully be close enough.

Look around to see if you popped any welds or bent anything. Check the strut towers and around where the crash bar/bumper support bolts on.

Common sense would tell you if the tension rod brackets were bent, then the lower core support is also bent. Frame rails may be too.
