Default Quick door alignment ?

For those of you that have there doors aligned did the alignment bolts get a lot of paint chipped off. A little **** about that but my alignment sucks. Gap between rear pass door and back of cab is about .093 and between doors is about .187 and between front door and fender is .250. Top rear of pass door sits in about .187 and top rear of ds rear door sticks out about .062. Also bottom back of ds front door sticks out about .125 looks like it is not shut all they way. Come on Ford. Love the truck but coming from a 2012 Tundra i have to say body panels on it were pretty darn good. Had to vent a little. So anybody comment on chipped up bolt heads after alignment?? Did the doors fit better? Thanks

They moved my strikers in a bit, which aligned my doors front to rear, and got rid of that annoying giggle noise over bumps at speed. Always inspect before you drive off the lot, and have any damage documented.

I had mine done, and they didnt do it perfect so I went at it myself. The paint did chip off the bolts, but worth it in the end. Looks much better once they're all aligned.
