Has anyone else accidently..hit their knee against their front fender and put a dent in it????.....Good Golly, I DID!...My knee must possess powers to dent the front fender I barely touched it...Yea now I have a small dent...*sad*....

 

 

no the body panels are just weak



that would be from my elbow

 

so much for that four star safety rating.. . lol

 

LOL...You have a Bionic elbow eh?...

 

ooh i guess when i get mine i shouldn't go "booty bump" the doors closed cuz my hands are full.

 

You should have seen the body panels on my wifes old Echo.....If you breathed on it you would dent it............

 

hahaha

 

Right... Except for the huge beams that make up the frame and cage of the car. The tC has some seriously beefy body frame going on, that's one of the reasons it's so heavy.

But yes, it sucks that the body panels are so thin. I started being real careful when closing the hood, when I found out how much it flexes and creaks if you push on it at all. Freaked me out first time I waxed the car.

The dent-puller suction cups really do work. You can pick one up for about 5 bucks at your local auto parts store. It takes some elbow grease, but you should be able to easily remove any dent on a flat (not pinched or sharp like on the bodyline) section of the car.
