Tail Gate Hinge Mounts - Adjustment?

Hello all,

I removed my tail gate hinge mounts to paint the bed. Any tricks to getting these adjusted so the tail gate lines up correctly? Thanks,

I just look for witness markings and put it back there and trial and error after that...

I spent a few hours getting tail gate aligned, trial and error and a lot of sweat:

Then I masked off the catches and let the hinge mounts be body color:

I carefully pulled the tape right after the last coat of clear.
