Body

A characteristic feature of car models, which are described in this guide is the presence of the structure type "Unibodi", which uses the floor pan of the body together with the front and rear longitudinal spars. They serve as a support body parts, systems, front and rear suspension and other mechanical components. Certain parts are particularly vulnerable during an accident. They can be unscrewed and repaired or replaced. These include Uzes moldings, bumpers, bonnet and trunk, and all the windows.

This section provides information regarding only the general procedures of maintenance and repair of the body and repair the body panels, which can be performed independently.
