You have to loosen the bolts that hold the hinge to the hood and slide them around till you get things straightened bac up. You also have 2 rubber bumpers under the front corners on the hood you may need to adjust as well. The front corner bumpers turn like a bolt and set the up and down height of the front corners.

The hing bolt holes are oversized so you can slide them around to get things to line up again. Lossen the bolts and slide the hood around in the direction you want it to go and snug the bolts back down and close hood to check alignment. You will have to play with it and do it several times till you get it lined back up.
 
probaly not the problem but make sure you have no tools under there where the fender bolts on. happened to me once, i left a screw drive in there.
