Got a question. I got a 92 SE-R classic. Got a small problem with the doors. it seems that they are not aligned right. Im almost positive they arent the original doors because after close inspection you can see they are a diffrent shade of white, doors are a spec more lighter than fenders. anywyas, it really bugs me because when i close the door from the inside i can feel the door latch not entering right. its not a big diffrence but it bugs me, id say its about 2mm off. anyone know any info on how to fix this? can a body shop do it?

loosen the bolts for the latch pin and slide it up or down to get it to line up. are there big gouges in your door pain near the latch? if so those gouges are from the seat belt geting caught in the door. this usually happens due to dirt and grime getting built up in the top hanger for the belt if you can clean that out you seat belts will retract better. the build up is under the belt on the ring.
