yes the window was replaced look at the side members, the bumpers mounting sites. if the body clearance is uneven that is the first signal that it is beat up.

People who are competent in the matter can see it at once and from afar. It's just a matter of finding the right person!

need to be careful here, check the seams and joints and check the exterior and under-hood paintwork. Under the hood, it's always matte, and the body by the granularity of the paint when light reflects.

There's a special gauge. It is a pity, I do not know its name. It works like this: different lights come on depending on whether it was a scratch or straightened iron:

y-yes at an ustry angle is cool: great respect: you want to determine how and where something was beaten up, take it to the body shop at a good service, so when you replace parts at a good service, the device will not show anything. again, the painting. if the whole thing painted also bummer: then you have to go and see the internal seams, and what they should be here all cards to masters of body repair. so do not spare the money and forward to the masters:

Signs that the car was in an accident: - loose fit or skew hood, doors, body panels - very noticeable impact in the joints of the windows is very difficult after the impact exactly fit the glass - still need a good light to look at the color of the items such as changed the fender with the wrong paint will have at least not strong, but noticeable shade - if possible look at the body welding should not be a crack, rust, chips and paint another color In the rest to the pro and on the pit.

What was described above is not a repair or a hack in the garage In fact, without experience is difficult to look at everything even under the rubbers as laid sealant unpainted gaps traces of fastening to the slipway if there is even not always possible to install There was a car jap green and the code on the plate - white special. looked for flaws - anything - no and all! Dismantled that completely disassembled the body painted - assembled HAVE SPEC and that, but often seen without problems if you have experience or a device for measuring the thickness of the paint coating in the MV tolerance for repair but still thicker Good luck on the road

With ultrasound applied kmopyuter in a good authorized service. There are certainly subjective ways, but they are ineffective against the junk that was prepared competently: - discrepancy of markings on glasses to car model year - tightening of the car with balanced wheels and exposed camber on speed - complete absence of minor scratches on the car - the car could not be for several years of operation and nowhere wiped - clean licked interior engine the seller focuses on the heels of like music disks and other nonsense.
