all kits have gaps, you just notice this one because its yours, unless

they are full door skins, quarter panels or fenders.

you are talking about the gap between the original car and the new stuff

right? the gap should be small, s-m-all. Tell them to throw a tiny bit of seam

sealer or a flexible bonding glue in the seam if it bothers you.



If there are large gaps, maybe there is something wrong, is the kit

compleatly on the car, or was it held in place to fit and see how its

going to look?

They probably worked extra hard on it to assure the safety of their knee caps..
