No. Once the edge is cleaned up and painted, it will look fine.
I thought the gaps an mine were on the large side to start with, but now I'm used to them, they look exactly as they should.
The rear edge of the hole should be angled backwards i.e. the hole is wider at the bottom than it is at the top.

Looking good. I'm looking forward to seeing it all finished. My only comment would be that the side roundals and numbers are on the small side, but I assume they're just stick on, are they?
