Significant damage to the body must be repaired at service stations that have equipment for body repair.
If there is extensive damage, the body geometry should be checked. It may also affect the handling characteristics of the car or cause other components to wear out faster.
Due to the fact that all the main components of the body (hood, fenders, etc.) are separate elements that can be replaced, it is best to replace them rather than repair them. Sometimes the required parts can be found in second-hand parts stores, which is much cheaper than buying new ones.
