I just installed an S2000 on my car, as in, I just walked in from doing it and read this post. The S2000 antenna left no gap with the vortex generator on it.

Thanks all! Welll the concensus seems to be "some gap" "some no gap" 
So I'm just gonna file/dremel a little of the screw and yes take of the "dinky" perrin sticker as one member put it!
Thanks again guys/gals

I had the gap also on my antenna for my 2005 GSR.
I ended up using a bolt cutter to take off about 1/8" and then used a file to ground/smooth it out. I then used some loctite around the thread and screwed it on.
Fits perfect now!

Sorry for the bad pic, It's late and I just wanted to show you guys mine.
It's not really that bad of a gap. Hell, I don't even notice it. I might try that O-Ring suggestion now.
