New Trunk tilted

I bought a Seibon Carbon Fiber Trunk and installed it with the original wing but it is tilted. the left side is closer to the edge than the right side so the wing rubs against the left side. Is there any methods to adjust this trunk without having to replace it? Here are pics comparing the left and right sides.

There is some wiggle room in the hinges where you bolt them down. If you loosen the bolts there, you can shift the trunk lid and then tighten the bolts.
 
Thanks for the advice. I looked at the NSX Service manual and saw that the trunk latch is adjustable. I loosened the bots and was able to move it around. I shifted the latch to the left a little which allowed the trunk to be more aligned.

Now the trunk is more balanced and the rear wing does not come in contact with the side.
