Hood Alignment issue
Yesterday I opened my hood to check a few things, after closing it I noticed that the front passenger side corner of the hood is not flush with the fender anymore... Anyone know how to adjust the alignment? Or have any idea why/how this happened?
The car has never been in an accident, so I don't know what the deal is.

My hood was a tiny bit off when I got my car. Look around the front of the engine bay, on the front support beam, there is a forward-pointing bolt on each side with a rubber head that the hood rests on. These can be adjusted pretty easily. I can take a picture later if you need help finding. what im talking about.

Interesting idea, I didn't not try moving it side to side because the drivers side looked perfect... I attempted to move it side to side as you suggests and it worked.. It's not 100% but it look better now... Clearly something is loose.
