04 Sierra Hood sitting high in rear ( adjustment??)

Anyone know of any way to adjust a hood from sitting high in the rear (end toward the windshield) The rest of the hood fit I can live with the after I replaced my hood it sits high in the rear. I dont see any adjustment like on the old trucks I have had in the past.
Any help appreciated!

Also for some annoying reason my pics are right side up, but after uploading them to my post they are turned 90 degrees.....

Did you replace the hold because old hood was it in front? If so your hood hinges are probably bent.

You can add some washers to the hood bolt farthest away from the cab and it will shim the hood down until new hinges are installed.

Hit up MARTINSR, he has a lot of body experience and can give good advise.
