Had a Thursday last month where every single panel gap was perfect

I don't know what was in the air but I did three door jobs and a quarter panel replacement and every gap measured spot on. No shimming, no tweaking, no redo. Usually I mess with at least one. Has anyone else had a day like that or am I just getting lucky?

My first really good day like that was back in 2012 on a silver 2004 Honda Accord. I had to replace the passenger fender after a deer hit, and I swear the gap between the fender and the hood was like butter, no shims needed. Then I did a bumper cover alignment on an old Camry and it clicked right into place, no fighting with the brackets. I spent the rest of the day waiting for the other shoe to drop, but it never did. I honestly think some days the car gods just smile on you (or maybe it was the phase of the moon, I dunno). Makes the bad days worth it, but man it never happens enough.

Ha, bet the car gods were just making up for the last three jobs you probably fought through.
