Hood alignment

My hood on my 48F1 needs adjusted. The drivers side looks like it needs to be lowered between 1/8" to 1/4" and the passenger side needs to raised about the same amount. Is there that much adjustment available? I was wondering if anyone has any tips or ideas on how to align.

Thanks
Terry
