Default 93 C4 hood adjustment !

Just put the hood back on and I'm having a hard time with it😢

When closed, the nose of the hood on the passenger side sticks out away from the car and the drivers side is in but not as much as the pax side is out.
Gave up after an hour of screwing with it.

Mark and loosen the bottom half of both hinges. move the hood side to side as needed. You may need to use a small lever as the weight of the hood is setting on the hinges. Take your time - I must've thought I was done 5-6 times before I was finally happy with it
