So my passenger side door is now slightly rubbing in between the seems under the side mirror.......its the vertical gap thats now rubbing inbetween the door and the front fender.

It has not bent the metal, but has shaved off some paint.


So how do I adjust this? The door does not lift up and down when you pull on it so the door jamb bolts seem pretty tight.

I really havent looked into the probelm to much but was wondering if anyone has fixed this b4??????

??? Did you hit something? Or run over a speedbump/pothole and hit the front quarter panel on the passenger side? The only time I have had a problem like this, my front quarter panel was the problem, even pused in a little bit, it will rub.
To fix the problem, remove the screws in the wheelwell, remove the plastic shield. pull the quarterpanel towards you, or push it out from behind,
if it is not bent bad, you may also get it to move just by opening your door, pull on the area of the front quarter panel that you are rubbing on. pull until your door clears and no longer rubs.
thats the only thing I can think of without taking a look at it.
