1. Restoration of body parts after significant damage should be carried out at a station of the appropriate specialization and the appropriate level of equipment, since during the performance of the procedures there will be a need to use specialized equipment.
2. If the body has been seriously damaged, after restoration it is necessary to check its geometric parameters, since if they deviate from the norm, the car's handling may decrease, and some elements will wear out intensively.
3. Main body parts (hood, fenders, etc.), which have been seriously damaged should be replaced rather than repaired. Sometimes it makes sense to buy such parts at used parts markets, as their cost there is significantly lower than the cost of new parts.
