the only panel gap problem im having at the moment is the sides of the front bumber where the plastic clips are both sides keep popping out think i might see vaux about getting new clips all round as headlight ones and bumper ones arnt actually screwing the bolts in they just kinda sit there :/

From my experience of fitting wings there are two bolts that sit behind the bumper if you slacken them and the two nearest the headlight along the top you should be able to adjust that gap. If you can't get enough movement out of that slacken them all so that they are tight but you can still move the wing about. With a bit of persistence you will have it looking right in no time.
