The drilling holes to keep track of the alignment you spent so much energy on is a great idea!
I think the order makes sense with one thought to add. it is important to keep the edges of the front fenders aligned with the front of the hood. My issue was that one fender was a little higher than the other at the front so initially my hood did not line up well it needed a little "twist".

I did fiddle it to be pretty good, but based on the knowledge from this thread what I would do is the order as described, but only put a few bolts in the fenders (front and back of them) and then fit the hood....that way if I need to move one fender up or down a little it would be only a couple of bolts and plus I'd want to do it before the Terosat ribbon/sealer got too good of a grip.
