Differing panel gaps bad?

Just been going over my celica and the panel gaps on the passenger side and drivers side are about 1-2mm out in places
(i.e the bonnet sits 1mm "left")

The car doesn't pull to one side under braking or driving and the tyre wear is even, its also been to a couple of garages (for a scratch repair in the wing and for undersealing) and neither place has mentioned anything.

Is my chassis bent? :\

EDIT: just to confirm, the gaps are regular down the length of the gap in general (so from the top to the bottom of the bonnet on both sides is alright) its just not quite "central" from left to right.

Just been out there with measuring stuff - each wheel sits exactly in the same spot in the arch as its opposite number (both horizontally and vertically).

plus the wheels are also aligned from front to rear (I parked on the line of a parking space)

all good
