T-Panel and Passenger door rubbing

[Soma576@xxxx]

Hey all,

i've noticed a problem with my passenger side door. when you open it, it 
seems like the middle of the top edge of the door rubs against the T-panel 
about halfway up, and the farther up it goes, it rubs further down the 
T-panel towards the front of the car. there is a smooth discoloration on my 
passenger side door in the front corner of it. also, i can watch the t-panel 
from the front of the car and i can see it slightly flexing or getting pushed 
to the driver's side. 

my passenger door closes pretty well, but it's not perfect. the front latch 
catches slightly before the rear latch does, and the main latch then latches 
at the same time for both sides. so, it seems to be set a little bit wrong. 
the front closes slightly before the rear.

is this a door problem or a T-Panel problem? i am just wondering because i 
probably won't get this fixed until next spring unless it does not involve 
any torsion bar adjustments (in that case i may do it while the car is in 
storage). what must be done?
