Think about it...if you would pull the fender forward, what will that to to the hood lineup? The door will adjust....see the GM Fisher Body Manual.

Does the door latch good or is off id line the door up with the quarter panel then the fender off the door.

When aligning gaps and panels, always start with the one that can't move. Happens to the be quarter panel, where it meats the door. Make sure THAT gap is good. from there, you can move the fender to ensure its good with the front of the door, and then the hood.
