Door Stuck On Opening

I am in the same stage with my dart, I seem to recall the fenders have to be "lined up with the cowl" then you would ajust door gap. In other words the front door gap same as rear gap doesnt come into pay if the fenders and cowl, hood isnt where they need to be. there is a curved part of the fenders that lines up with the curved part of the cowl, but I am sure you would know this it would be obvious if it was off . I suppose my point is the doors still could be too far forward etc. and to the best of my knowledge the collar does spin,but my strikers arent new. also, the weight of the door is mentioned, are all the bolts for the hinges tightened? Its easy to forget some of them and there is 5 on the top and 6 on the bottom hinge.
