s5 vert door panels on s4

i bought a set of s5 vert door panels to put in my s4. there is a little gap right where the vert has the support bar for the little window in front. i got a pic of one of them in my car, on the first picture it is at the very edge but you can see it, also you can kinda see it in the second pic. if you want i can go take more pics of it tomorrow when its light outside.

the panels are somewhat modular, you might be able to swap the top section out if you have matching ones.

to help with that gap just take the rubber window seal off of your door panel and replace the two seperate ones on the vert panel with the one solid one off of your panel. there will still be a small one but not nearly how it is with the two seperate seals

yeah thats what i did and it is a pretty small gap. as for the coupe pannels on a vert, im not sure but you might have to make that hole.

but heres a close up pic of the gap.
