Snake,
Makes perfect sense. The cut out for the doors should result in a straight edge from outside to inside with no 90' lip. If you really want to get fancy, on the inside take a small grinder and grind away until the edge is roughly an 1/8" thick, sticking out just about 3/16's - 1/4 seems to be a little to wide. Once the body is down and painted, you can get a roll of "door edge guard" . Put the carpet down then install the edging. Looks great and protects the paint edge.
As far as the "nose" mounting goes, lay the hood in place. Install the bumpe stops and check the height. Not usually necessary but once in a while you may find one forward corner (body) may be a little higher or lower than needed. Just push down or lift up for alignment, mark and attach. Remember, if the gap between the wheel tub and the frame is more than an 1/8" or so, fill the gaps with spacers.
That's all for today!
