Looks like you need to replace the hood hinges, have you changed them? Looks good!

If you used a good pair of hinges thats good! From the pic it looks like the hood is sunken in the back. You can use fender washers to bring the back up and that will then lower the front. Do you plan on painting it yourself aswell?

Unless you pay extra for the base and clear urethane, maaco's basic paint job is a single stage enamel. That will not last a long time if you plan on keeping the car. Maybe if you go to a mom n pop paint job, or one of those mobile painters. Even if you used the cheapest urethane Nason brand that a lot better then enamel.
