trunk fitment help!!

hey, just recently installed a carbon fiber trunk and it obviously needs some fitment work. i can easily adjust the left/right/front/back movement to look good, but cant seem to figure out the height. its only off by a few millimetres. i tried tightening a couple of bolts that look like theyre responsible for height, but after tightening them all the way it still wont go flush. any ideas?

When I did mine a couple years back I took the struts off and moved the latch down a little bit so the trunk would close further down. It's a pain in the ass trying to open it, but at least it doesn't look like poop

so by latch you mean the part attatched to the car not the part of the latch on the trunk, right?
