Default Hood Alignment?

The underside of my hood seems to be hitting the fender screws, and
making nice little round dings in the hood. The hood is designed for the
super charger clearance, and when closed looks to be aligned perfectly with the front fenders, etc. Thinking of using rubber weather striping over the dings but wondered if anyone had other options that would be better?

Sounds like you need to adjust the hinge or (hood) bumper/stop height
