i think it's just the 01-02 that're having this problem, all the people that were complaining about having dimples on their roof or wherever all have 01 or 02 vics, unless i'm mistaken

Did you install that lower X-brace? I'm getting mine fixed and I don't want them to come back. If you did, how is it working?

ive never had a single dimple in the roof or hood. I have a 01 ex dropped on konis and sportlines, rsx rear sway bar, neuspeed front upper strut bar. I drive the **** outta this car, including the occasional autox and canyoning, i guess its just a 50/ 50 shot of getting them.

I have dimples on the corners of my sun roof they look like they are supposed to be there though, they are very uniform in size (i have H&R springs). I also had them on my crx si (B16A VTEC) when i was trying to sell my crx this one guy went crazy over them, he was about to buy it and saw them and was like "was the roof replaced? I dont know that scares me." I was like no its just from being lowered that was the only reason why he didn't buy I was so dissapointed anyway thats my dimple story, Next.

I have the dimples. Wow. Car has been in the shop thrice about to go in for a 4th time. Sign just fell on it a few weeks ago. I thought the body shop made these dents in the roof the last time it was being fixed. Same dents as the rest of the pics. Dents are in opposing corners of the sunroof.

2001 ex with 81k miles. I put every mile on it. I drive the **** out of it. 2nd motor. AEM CAI and my stupidity ruined the first motor. Hit a deer 2 months after buying it and most of the front end was replaced.

Eibach sportlines and no name front strut tower I got off ebay cheap. Eibach camber kits.

First 70,000 miles was with 18 inch Konig Rated R's. 5000 miles or so was with 15 inch Konig Heliums, Now I have some 17's. I noticed the dimples after my wife ran over a large metal object. It collapsed the 2 15 inch Konig Heliums and did some body damage under the passenger door.

My first thought is chassis flex.And that honda did not stiffin the body between ex(with sun roof) and non ex models. They basically just cut a hole in the roof and then when us modd heads come along and stiffen every thing up the strain only has one place to go....lol dimples! But again just my 2 cents.
