Hood alignment help
Car: 2000 infiniti i30t
Replaced my hood with one from 2002 i35
The alignment seems to be off - passenger side alignment is much closer than Driver side. Pic attached.
This also results in the hood latch being off a bit and I need to force it to lock by sitting on it.
(Bonus point, if you noticed the color difference)

If you do a Google search, you will see that these hinges are not that good and if you do attempt at this adjustment you might need someone to help you as I don't think these hinges from factory are all that great.
Should you attempt at this, make sure you consult someone like a pro body person to see what is the proper procedure and if I am correct, you might need additional pair of hands holding the weight of the hood so, you don't destroy the factory hinges.
Best of Luck!
