Once I get the doors sanded and polished, I'll hang them and adjust the body (pads) as might be necessary.
I always test fit everything at least once. I only place a thin piece of webbing between the frame and body when fitting. Once the body has been painted and polished, I install the correct pads between the body and frame.
With all the test fitting, I have yet to have a car go together without at least a tiny bit of shimming.

It might be a stupid question here Mike BUT are you shimming to achieve "Gap" integrity?? AND even after all of your test fitting you still find on most project you still have to shim??
