				Hi
 
 I called Van's again today and spoke to Scott Risan (the GM) who answered
 the tech support line. He was very, very helpful and a pleasure to deal
 with. I asked about the door gap and he took the following photos to help
 guide me.
 
 His explanation about the gaps was also quite informative.
 
 Cheers

				Scott Risan is one of the bright spots (at) Van's.
 
 The sad thing about the doors, is that Van's accepts a lower standard 
 for their fiberglass components than they do for their alum/machined 
 components. They have received countless amounts of feedback on the 
 subject. And the only visible improvement is that the materials went 
 from green to pink. There's no reason that the same computer controlled 
 CNC technology used to produce the alum components could not be employed 
 to produce quality molds for the larger fiberglass components. Even if 
 they insisted on continuing with hand layups it would be a dramatic 
 improvement. Going to pre-peg cloth and autoclaved lay-ups would yield 
 yet another leap in quality, (and a dramatic reduction in build time). 
 It will never happen, but it could/should.
