I've been dailing in panel alignment and panel gaps before laying down highbuild primer. I read that high millage at panel ends is a not good practice. One of the pro's here had mentioned it so I took that advice to heart.
With that being said, I'm striving for 3/16" panel gaps and flush metal to metal panel alignment before paint. After the doors where set and gapped at the quarter panel, I focused my attention to the front fender to door panel alignment and gap.
Panel gap required stitch welding up the edge using 1/8" electrode rod.

Next reply below will be the tool I fabricated to aid in panel alignment.
