Default Hood Flex At Hinge Mount?

Would a few of you mind opening up your hood and while holding it open see if there is any side to side movement or body flex where the hinges meet the body? As my JK is nearing completion of some shop work I want to be sure the hood is mounted right. I have some body flex where the passenger side hinge is mounted as if there is supposed to be some kind of brace underneath - nothing major but noticable when I move the hood side to side.

Thanks!
