The poor state of A.R.E. camper top production

I have a 2003 2.7L 4x4 single cab and this week had my A.R.E. Cap installed.
As I will show below the quality of the manufacture's build of this cap is pretty poor.
The paint interior and exterior is pretty good but its not a good fit on my truck.
And the local installer tried to make the best of what he was given.

First off the whole cap is off center shifted 3/16" to the left.
You can see the lip of the bed rail here on the right side but not on the left.



And this was because the shell could not move right any further



Here is a photo of the right side



But what really bothers me is how they mounted the door locking hardware.
The handle and arm assembly that pivot the locking rods to either side of the shell frame were placed too close to the top of my truck's tailgate.



So when I turn the handle, the lower arm pivots scraping the top of my truck's tailgate.



According to the shop owner who installed this cap for me, he regularly gets caps
with problems like this. He tells me that in the 35 years he has been installing them,
A.R.E. generally does a better job than LEER.
He says that the problem is that these are assembly line productions and they just cannot
get good workers 100% of the time.

 

Can you take a picture of the entire tailgate with it closed from directly behind?

 

You can see that being off center is hardly noticeable
