Gap between door and front quarter panel...
Gap between door and front quarter panel... ive heard this happens pretty often but i have gaps between my door and front panel (was like this when i got it)... one side is worse than the other.... is there any quick fix to this?
edit: the gap is just on the bottom corner, like the door curves inwards or something

It's from somebody jacking up your car and bending the fender tabs, look under the fenders and you'll see a tab with 2 bolts, bet you $1 it's bent
The solution, if the tab on the fender isn't broken, is to remove the bolts and straighten the metal part out (use vise grips, or body tools if you want to get fancy) reattatch the fenders, and the gap should be gone
