✕AI: Not to repair — structural damage
AI · 2026-09-10 10:37
Rear impact above the bumper line: the fold of the boot aperture and the rear body panel crumpled, light sockets of both rear quarter panels torn out, the assessor marked three GAP spots along the left quarter panel right up to the door edge — body geometry affected, not just bolt-on parts.
