No chance somebody tried to close the trunk with the stay extended and twisted the brackets, right?

If not, then (from the manual):

Bolt the trunk hinges (they are marked with a T on the lid side) loosely onto the body with any shims found earlier. Loosely bolt the trunk lid (with factory shims) onto the hinges. Carefully close the lid, not letting the front edge contact the body. Center the lid in the opening. Slowly lift the lid just enough to get your arm (and a wrench) inside and snug the bolts on the lid part of the hinges. Remember to check the front edge while lifting lid. The lid can be adjusted further by moving the lid and hinges in unit at the connection on the inner panel. Tighten bolts and recheck fit.
