- Accurate determination of the extent of damage enables correct repair planning.
- All types of body repairs must be carried out in strict accordance with the instructions of the Body Repair Manual.
- When performing body repairs, the characteristics of the body's stability and strength should be taken into account. The body has a very specific deformation characteristic that should not be violated during repairs.
- For example, crumple zones absorb a large portion of the energy in a collision. If any unprofessional methods or technologies are used to repair these areas, it may affect the safety of the vehicle.
Hidden damage
In addition to looking for external signs such as peeling paint, it is important to check for hidden body damage or deformation that is not visible from the outside.
To obtain an accurate assessment of damage to hidden body components, it is often necessary to remove large attached components such as bumpers and inner fenders.
Size of gaps
The size of the gaps offers another diagnostic option through visual inspection. If there is any change or misalignment of the edges, this usually indicates that the problematic spare part is of incorrect dimensions.
