As I was finishing up sanding / priming my engine compartment, I noticed that on both sides, the inner fender lip is cracked and slightly separated where it connects to the firewall.
The pictures I posted are where the passenger side firewall meets the inner fender (with hood hinges removed). While I know it shouldn't be cracked, I am wondering if this gap is within 'normal' tolerances, or if I need to get this tacked back together.
Has anyone come across this? What should this seam look like?
Thanks

Re: Inner Fender to Firewall Seam
Without going out and looking at mine, it's hard to say, but that seam usually is filled with seam sealer, then painted.
