I agree man, unless you're trying to make this thing a show car, most of that stuff is so minute that I wouldn't worry about it. Unless the hatch is leaking or something, it's no big deal. My TA is clean and clear, never been wrecked, and the hatch lid doesn't sit flush on either side of the car
but you can't really tell from 10 ft. away, so it doesn't bother me. As long as she drives great, just enjoy her and consider them battle scars!

I look at it like this, you bought a car that is 15+ years old, even if it is really low mileage for an LT1. Those noses are heavy as shit to just be hanging there, wreck or no wreck they sag over time. Just like mustangs... panel alignment sucks from the factory. So I wouldnt worry too much about it.

I'm not seeing any huge issues here. You should see mine. The gaps on your front end look pretty good to me. Paint nicks are normal. The hatch sitting high, while not a good picture, is an easy fix. Screw down the bump stop a little. I've had every single body panel of mine off, and need to tweak everything again to get the lines just right. Most of the cosmetic damage you posted looks like it's on the spoiler and hatch. If it bothers you that much, just have that repainted and blended.
