I just put my bonnet on this spring and can't remember where i learned the tip 
but........
I took off the grill.....layed the bonnet on the car then reaching through the 
grill opening .............tightened the bonnet down appropriately.  I'm not 
completely happy with the alignment but think its probably as good as it gets 
with these cars.  I'm wondering what the alignments were like from the factory 
when new.LOL

You'll probably have to loosen ALL bolts on the brackets (on the bonnet as well 
as on the inner fender) to get the bonnet to move the way you want in order to 
get alignment where you want it.

this process worked for me
