New Toy

First off, thank you for having me. I am new to the Porsche family with a little experience in the Audi and VW vehicles. i recently purchased a 2004 986 that is overall a very nice little car. The car has been garage kept so its clean. A few small issues, new tires, lower pan oil leak, fixed, radio intermittent, upgraded, new headlights and headlamp switch. The issue that I have now is when the top is retracted the clam shell doesn't quite close. I have checked the cables, the arms do not look bent, I have cleaned inside and out just from dust and small debris that accumulates in those areas.
It opens and closes fine, and the shell closed when the top is up. I looked for some discussion and may have missed it. Any help is very appreciated.

I think the rails that hold the clamshell down can be adjusted, but I'm probably the least qualified person on this forum to answer this question.
