I tried adjusting the door, but it's not gonna happen. Well. I got it to latch but I now have a door gap the size of the grand canyon. So it obviously can't stay this way. But it was good enough to be able to go get gas in it this afternoon.

Any problems since drilling a new hole in your plate? Because at this point, my options seem to be to have a body shop do work on the door w/ maybe new hinges or flip the plates around and drill a new hole.
