What's your fender/cowl reveal look like?

It's not supposed to be that tight, but, it may have been that tight though. The body fit tolerances on these cars weren't great from the factory. On all of my cars the gap there is about the same as the door and hood gaps, ideally I think it's supposed to be around a 1/4" or so. Looking at your other gaps it looks like you would benefit from adjusting the fenders out a bit, of course you'll have to loosen all of the upper mounting bolts in order to accomplish that.
