floppy hood

So in Feb. my SVX was hit by a clown that ran a stop sign. He hit the driver side front qtr and the the bumper. The hood was a little tweaked and after months of back and forth with the body shop the car is back to as close to as nice as it was before. The white pearl is not the same color as it was before (it's a brighter white) but it is the only color they managed to do that ended up with the car all the same color and it does look pretty good. Here is the only real problem I have left. The hood really shakes. It seems tight and properly adjusted when you pull or push on it. The only thing that seems a little weird is when it's open it doesn't seem very rigid. I think they twisted it when the repaired it. I'm wondering if it's possible that the bracing underneath is now loose or broken. Anyone seen this before?
