AI: Not to repair — structural damage2 things unclear — to be checked AI · 2026-09-19 14:23

The rear impact passed through the replaceable parts into the body: rear panel under the number plate crumpled with sharp creases, rear part of the boot floor and rear beam folded, lower part of the rear left quarter panel at the light torn (photo 6). This is not a bumper and lid replacement but cutting, welding and frame straightening work. Front, cabin and airbags untouched, but the structure decides.
