The metal seams which are bent and crushed are located directly underneath along the rocker panel. I am not sure, but I think that the seams are welded to the floor pans as well as to the rocker panel. When I inspected the seams, I realized that they were welded. This is why I am so worried here. If they are welded to the floor pans and to the rocker panels, how can they be fixed the correct way? I am so afraid that they can never be bent back into shape. I am also very afraid that the 1" inch wide seams will never look good again if Ford fixes them and if the fix doesn't look good. Plus, I think that if they can be repaired that there has to be substantial paintwork done to the seams. The seams are currently painted the color of the car. The bent and crushed seams on my car currently have paint damage to them. The paint has peeled off the seams from the stress from the bending of the seam. What also worries me here is HOW the seams will be repainted after they are bent back into shape? I am afraid of overspray all over the place under my car and on the side of my car. There are cables, an exhaust system, and some other metal and rubber parts under the car ( like rubber floorpan grommets, metal cables and rubber hoses). I don't want them to get oversprayed with paint and look bad. If there will be any paintwork done to the undercarraige, it must be done correctly and neatly. The current damage is VERY NOTICEABLE and a VERY BIG EYESORE. I am also very worried that further damage might be done to the already bent and damaged seams if they are repaired. This is driving me crazy. I don't know what to expect here with this type of damage that's been done to my Mustang. I am really worried about all these things.
