First make sure your doors are properly lined up.shims go wherever you need them in whatever quantity and variable thickesses needed.you should have shims under the top bolt,bolt near hood hinge and bottom of the fender by the door hinge.

Have the car on a flat level surface.line the fenders up with the doors before bolting them to the radiator support.after they are lined up and youre happy with it bolt them to the radiator support.you may need to add or remove shims from the support mounts.
