Is my hood messed up?

[Lithic]

I went on a bender a few months ago trying to figure out if mine was messed up as well. My conclusion was it's a mixed bag. On Instagram you'll see just as many Supras with misaligned hoods as ones with perfect alignment. I have the exact same issue as OP, highly doubt Toyota will do anything about it as it just seems to be a temperamental issue that things like ambient temp will affect. Some days, mine is perfect, some days, it is not. *shrug 100% of people I've asked to see if my hood looks misaligned on off days have said it looks fine to them.

this is a manufacture Assembly issue, i noticed this when i first time see the car at the dealer after a day it arrived , then i adjusted the hood but chipped off the paint on the hinge nuts. i first noticed was the hood doesn't line up with the driver side fender. and also alot of misalignment on the bumper and hood...here is my original post...https://www.supramkv.com/threads/hood-alignment-issue.10973/#post-161314

Same. They gouged some of the paint on the inside of my fender somehow when charging and re-initializing the battery. I shudder to think what would happen if they were actually intentionally banging on things. LOL.

There's a bit of gap/misalignment on several of my panels... not enough to really notice until washing it though.

are you a 2022 model? misalignment from hood to fender, hood to bumper.... and the aluminum corssbar rattle.....

Nope, I'm a 2020 (Sept 2019 build) but had a bit of hood to fender misalignment. Hood to bumper seems good, and originally I thought the crossbar had a rattle but it was just the cover not being completely clicked into place. I've got a ton of rattles in other places I'm slowly tracking down and fixing however.
