1. Repair of serious damage to the body should be carried out in a specialized service station, which has all the necessary equipment to ensure the proper quality of work.
2. In case of extensive damage to the body, first of all, check the geometry of the body, i.e. make sure that there is no displacement of elements that can affect the controllability of the car or cause accelerated wear of any of its elements.
3. Due to the fact that most of the body elements (hood, fenders, doors, etc.) They are removable elements that can be replaced individually and cannot be repaired in the event of serious damage. Sometimes it turns out to be much more reasonable and economical to find a suitable replacement element, which can be found not only in auto parts stores, but also in automotive «showdowns», which, of course, can significantly reduce costs.
