I had a hood hinge break on the 85SD and ended up pulling the hood to replace both springs from those on the parts car. The gap on the right fender is parallel to the fender but too wide.

The FSM mentions "hood centering screws" but the FSM pics are bad and I don't see any adjustment.

How do I move the entire hood ~ 1/8' to the left? An alternative may be to use washers to shift the fender but that would show in the engine compartment seems too inelegant for MBZ.
