I will pick up a few washers this week and give it another try. From the looks of how mine was closing I may need to shim a good 3/16 to 1/4 inch to get it to clear the plastic trim.
mine did that too.... thats why i had to remove them on my PWJDM CF engine covers it has indented my clear coat.... i think you should be ok once you put the washers bud
