As a body shop owner I can understand your concern. I've been rebuilding and repairing Fox bodys for 25 years and panel gaps can be a pain. I agree that the panels should have been pre-fitted and any gap problems should have been taken care of at that time. There is alot of adjusting that can be done to cure the problem. What has to be done is to re-adjust the whole front end so that the gaps are as uniform as possible. It's very time consuming but can be done. You can have a perfectly gaped front end, replace the hood with a new OEM part and have problems. The shop that painted your car should have made sure it was right when it left. They just need to take the time and do it right. Doug
