- Inspect bottom hem seams and lower drain holes for rust perforation, rot, or previous dent repair filler.
- Check hinge pin bushings, latch alignment hooks, and support cable attachment points for metal fatigue or bend damage.
- Match bodyline contours, spoiler mounting cutouts, and emblem indentations between base and sport trim models.
