For all you guys out there that are concerned about hangin' up your nose gear on those pesky screws on the nose gear door, consider this:  What I did on mine was rivet the hinge onto the door and have a removable hinge pin that slides out easily out the front end of the hinge - as like so many have done with the header tank mounting and cowling.  Even if the nose gear doesn't retract perfectly straight, it doesn't hang up when it drops out.  No worries...  No one ever removes that nose gear door anyway...
