Aligning doors

Hi All
Just wondering of theres any way to re-align the doors on my 3 door as the passengerside door is to far forward and the drivers door needs a tweek aswell, is there a way to re-align them myself or would it be best to take it to a body shop.

Mass produced cars like the Golf usually means any door will plop straight in the hole .  :dontknow:

You can fit packing washers behind the hinge and bend them slightly for a better fit . Pattern wings can make the door seem out of line .Worn hinges can cause the door to drop . So find out why first then have a go , it's cheaper .

try loosen of bolts on hinge then lift or drop  as said above  packing a washer then tighten up should work
