Body:
I've got a gap in mine, although it's not very visible. Most ASC's
I've seen have it. I recall an article of a test drive of a yellow
87 where it states, "Our only complaint was the gap between the rear
fender and the top, it doesn't meet flush. We were asssured this
problem will be resolved in production."...or something to that
effect. I rememeber thinking, "Yeah, right".
I say it's OK. Anyone else?
Was the gap there before?
