If it's only slightly I'd just leave it alone. I wouldn't suggest having techs touch your car

It was a pain basically had to loosen all mounting bolts push shim etc until gap was even. Looks great but trunk does not latch as easily.
If you can live with it I would not mess with it as mentioned.

I'm guessing all the OCD people in here haven't noticed how the passenger-side mirror is different than the driver side lol

Stand directly in front of your car and look at both mirrors.

I have OCD and it don't effect me.. I'm sure I can adjust it later.. 1 year on the 8 of this month. . I did forget to close it once at the store then once I hit a speed bump, it went up and closed kind of hard so I'm assuming that's what caused mine to be off center..

Not really I didn't measure it exactly at the very same spot as the right side.. was a bit tricky to hold the calipers and my note 3 at the same time but you get the idea.. but yeah it could be 1mm off.. I do notice it when I look really good but if you don't really look for it it not much of a big deal.. Easy fix..

It is a pretty substantial gap, my pinky fits on one side and doesn't on the other so 1mm isn't unbelievable. IMO that's a pretty large tolerance

With off centre trunk, would it have risk of water/rain seeping through and getting inside the trunk?

No. A poor seal will risk water into the trunk.
