The reason the flap to fuselage area may not be the same on each side on the 235 airframe:
 
The original Lancair 200 (now at EAA) that Lance constructed was glass over foam.  The plane was carved from foam using the original composite sandwich construction method.  The plugs/molds for the 235 airframe were taken of the original foam airframe, so each side is not exactly a mirror image of the other.  As a result, the molded parts for the 235 airframe and flap as they came from the sub-contractor may be more unequal to each side than the equivalent 320/360 parts.

>>>The fuselage flap fairing positions before “adjustment” are a bit rough on the 300 series but can be "tuned". By that I mean the fairings are not at an equal level condition (WL) with respect to each other from the factory … at least mine weren’t.<<<
