Hood hinge adjust

It seems like the hinges for the hood are adjustable, to line up with the body. But I can't seem to find how. Seems like they're behind the panel on the side, between the wheel and door. Probably behind the little side blinker with the "S" logo..
Does anyone have a link, or maybe explain how to get to it?

Long story short, daughter hit a deer, replaced the hood with an identical one from donor car. Now when shutting it, it hits the piece in front of the windshield.

Thanks for any insights!

Post #6 mentions it.
But I have not been able to find anything in depth on the subject.
