Default Console door does not line up correctly

As you can see below the stitching of the console door does not line up very well with the rest of the console. Anyone else experience or even notice if your console door aligns correctly on your car? Is there a way to correct by removing the console door?

Welcome to chevrolet and the crack staff at BG.....You can either take it in , or look under there and loosen it up , get it where you want then tighten screws...... that's all they're going to do…

Open the console door and loosen the screws and see if you can adjust it enough to improve the alignment. It does not look like it's off by much.

I don't think it is possible to adjust much if any at all. It more or less snaps into place on the hinges.
