are these panel gaps normal?

First picture is between driver door and passenger door. The other 2 are the roof. Do these look normal? Iv heard fixing some panel gaps can create others? Wanted to get your opinions

That back panel (pic 2) is normal. The trailing panel is slightly narrower than the leading panel, so it’ll be “misaligned” one way or another. The vast majority of Teslas have the same situation. Pic 1 looks perfect to my eyes.
 
I guess I should be happy then haha. I’m so used to reading about panel gaps that it made me look for them when I usually wouldn’t. Thanks everyone
I worry more about alignment and evenness than the absolute width of the gap. Thinks like the door or hood not closing evenly with the rest of the body. I have no idea what 'spec' is for Tesla but those pics look pretty good to me.
