Hi bros here... anyone had this experience before?
Mind sharing with some pics?
I had mine badly mis-jacked and had to knock the undercarriage back at the rear passenger seat footrest area....

Where did you put the jack... under the rear floor pan, or the metal skids bolted to the rear frame rails?

i was very particular of having a nice undercarriage... but sadly it was hurt...

ThunderOZRacer... u have the pic of what's before and after? would like to see whether it is still as nice as before after u knocked it back.... would appreciate if u could show mi...

ChuckP... u always jacked on that area and never got a bent or something? i believe that area is soft... will not withstand the weight of the whole car...

Its not the same but its pretty close... and apparently, there is like a layer of plastic or something under the carpet and that cracked... other than that, it's fine
