Did you know minibus and van door stays are slightly different? You can't lay the minibus door across the rear lights on a minibus. You can with a van, by flipping the stay out of the door. The minibus door stay is fixed in. I don't know if this makes any difference to the actual doors or hinges.

Red door needs to go closer to the pillar and up. Have you got the latching mechanism in the red door? Mine look a bit close if they aren't latched fully. Grey door might need to go a touch closer to the pillar

You should be able to move them about on the hinge adjustments, there's a fair bit of movement available and you can always use a file to create more.

Are you doing gasless with the mig? The chassis bits you did looked like it was welding better. Still as long as it's solid it'll grind down and look fine

Basically mutts the bottom of the corner wont line up with the rear outter panel.i think the support bracket for the pillar is to wide and stopping the rear panel from lining up better
