Default Front sheet metal alignment with DSE subframe

I remember reading a forum post or magazine feature on one of Stielow's builds in which he stated that he needed to trim .200" off his DSE core support mounts to get the sheet metal to line up right with the DSE subframe. I hung the metal on my car before I read that and I am now curious after looking at the gaps on mine if I should trim the mounts? The fender will not pull back enough to touch the rocker panel and the gap narrows as it goes up to the top of the fender. All of the parts are either original or NOS and I had none of these issues with the car during the restoration 20 years ago with the factory subframe and rubber mounts.

Has anyone else run into this?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
