Aligning panels isnt really that easy. It would be hard to explain, and shouldn't really be tackled by someone without any experience. Do you know anyone that works in a body shop or has previously worked in one? You could make the problem a lot worse if you dont know what your doing. You have to remember that when you change anything for the door gap it might also change the adjustment to the hood.
What exactly is the problem your having?

well its not really a problem, its just the fender sticks out about a 1/2inch farther than the door, i wasn't sure if it was something i just needed to tighten or what but since it is something harder than i can do myself i won't change anything.
Mine was like that one day, check the pinch weld under on the bottom of the car under the fender, discount tire crunched it and it threw the fender out of alignment, A pair of vice grips and a little bit of time I had it strieghtend back out and the fender fell back into place. Its most likely not the case for you, but something to check.
Yeah mine had it, it was about a 5 minute fix, if i'm thinking the same thing. lLok under the fender right behind the tire, and you'll see two bolts were it meets in place by two lips. The lip is probably bent and pulled. Just take the two bolts off and use a pair of pliers to bend it straight and bolt em back in. should fix it. Mine looks 10x better, I couldn't stand looking at it off all the time.
