It was repaired... they did a fine job. It could be the lighting. There were suspension parts replaced, an OEM headlight and taillight, curtain airbags, refinished rims, new tires, repainted front and rear bumper, blended side, and repaired drivers seat. ( the seat airbag ripped the leather ). It was really screwed.

Yeah, they did a good job, but once the lines of the sheet metal is hit, it's very hard to get the lines back. This is why you don't see the lines back there.

You can barely see the lines on the area above the wheel. But i'm just OCD like that. So it shouldn't matter to most people.

That's the lighting you're seeing. Take it into photoshop and play with it, you'll see it.
