Default Boot adjustment advice please

Working my way around the back today (can't face doing another door top yet). The boot is proud on the right hand rear edge, too proud I think to sand down. How to I lower it, the hinge is loose so isn't the problem. On the left hand side the boot lid is low at the front corner, I have put a 5mm shim in-between the hinge and boot lid which has raised it up, don't know why because the hinge is again loose.

At the bottom trailing edge in the centre it is about 8mm proud, again to much to sand off and I don't want to put that much filler on the lower panel where the boot lock is located to build it up.
I thought maybe a slice in the two outer ribs to sharpen the curvature to bring the rear in but the curvature around the edges is pretty good.

Anyone with a cunning plan?
