NO!

There are bolts that you need to loosen enough to hold the hood in place but will allow you to use some force to align/move the hood

also, look at the shims under hinge bracket; ck for loose bolts & the hood stoppers on top of the radiator support (rubber bumpers)

on the topic of body panel alignment, how do you go about easily aligning a driver's door??? i have to push down on the handle to close the door, and wiped out a brand new door jamb bolt. i also got in an accident that created the problem. there's a dent up top, would that have to be pounded out???
