After 4 more adjustment attempt with the driver's side hinge, I'm invoking the Russian spy Boris Gudenov ("good enough"). It's a little close at the bottom, but I'm leaving that for another day. I may work on the cowl there sometime in the future. Not sure I can adjust the driver's side hinge upward to fix that. At one point I had it so high that the hood didn't even touch the seal at the rear. Maybe the easiest fix is grinding the edge of the hood down a bit and touch up the paint.
Here's before and after pics.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
