Replace strut mount and there is still play

I had gone a few months ago to get my alingment done but they wouldnt do it because that cap that sits onto of the strut tower and sticking up so there was up and down play. Well I just got around for replacing the strut, springs and rubber part with the bearing and that cap is still sticking about the strut tower when the weight of the car is put on it. Do those caps wear out too? thats the only thing that hasent been replaced but I dont really know.

It's just a cap.The strut mounts seat when weight is applied,and you will see a gap.
