My drivers door, when closed has about a 1/4 inch gap from the door to the body on the door handle side of the door.I assume it was caused by launching the car. I was wondering if there was a way to adjust it?

If you mean that when shut, the rear of the door is in 1/4" from the rear quarter panel, you can adjust the stirker pin out a little.
There are adjustments for about any direction you want to move the door. The striker is easy to adjust, the other adjustments (@ hinges) are a PITA.

Just be sure that you are on the "second" catch. Your door latch has two positions, be sure that you are on the second one. You may need to move the striker OUT, because you are on the first catch of the latch.
