Have you x measured the car to check for square? There are factory holes in the rad support and the cowl which you can reference. Have the door hinges holes been hogged out or are the hinges not tight?

I have x measured from the subframe not the radiator support. It was right on. Hinges are brand new. I got new hinges thinking the old ones were causing the problems.

I had a hell of a time getting mine to line up. I think I had to loosen the rad support and move that forward a bit, then the door came forward. You might need to work your hinges a little to get your door forward, thats cool. you gotta do what you gotta do. Keep at it and you will get it. It's worth it in the end.

make sure the body is level with no twist and preferably has the motor in it. If not, gapping a convertible camaro will drive you nuts. Start with the doors and work foward
