Hood/bumper alignment...

The front of my hood seems to rest a 1/2" aft of where it should on the front bumper. Is this a bumper problem or a hood problem? The hood is kinda hard to close all the way like it may be disaligned. Anyone else have this? Is it common (probably )? Easy fix?

Loosen the hinge bolts, ans move the hood forward slightly. Notice it doesn't line up with the corner of your headlight pocket either.
