300R Side Panels?

So I just picked up a Corsair Carbide 300R for my upcoming build. While the build quality is solid and it feels like I could load it up without worrying about the case flexing, I did notice one thing that concerned me a bit: the side panels don't seem to sit completely flush. Any other 300R owners run into this problem? Any remedies/suggestions? It's not a huge concern, but I don't want the case's airflow to be potentially hindered by loose panels.

Thinking of building a rig soon

I setup my friends 300R (After replacing his shitty 1 exhaust no intake case lol) and I had no issues with the side panel flexing. I doubt it will affect airflow that much and at most it will have a slight air leak.

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861
