okay okay! near the trunk on the sides i have a dent that size of a circle...i feel that those side panels are really light and not reinforced or watever...now i have seen about 10 or so 7thgens ethier while i am driving, walking, or parkin with the same dents on the same spot...is it just a coincedence? or is it that they are too weak? i should get some pics but its dark outside..

yeah, those panels are very weak. from behind, they are not reinforced except at the ends where they are weld to the corners near the lights. I had a dent at the same place and when the autobody shop fixed it, it started to tin-can. I fixed it by shinking it with an oxy-acetylene torch and cooling with a cold wet towel. then I used some fiberglass filler.

might have gotten them from leaning there like when gassing up or soemthing .

most of my dings are on the quarterpanels right behind the door's edge. People just love swinging their doors open.

I dont have a dent there, but my trunk near the top where it curves down at the very back of the car. I have about 20 little ball looking dents right on top in a little line. I hate it and think somebody did it on purpose. its a pos trunk.
