Here is the adjustment procedure from the Workshop Manual:
Before attempting this, I would carefully measure LH and RH wing height and ensure the front bumper is correctly aligned. Misalignment in either or both of these could make the bonnet panel appear to be the culprit.
Also check the securing bolts on each to see if they have previously been moved since original manufacture. Marks on the paint on or around the bolts would indicate this.
