These cars bend easily. I know someone personally who curbed his. There was NO body panel damage at all. How he managed that I'll never know, but he didn't even scratch the bumper cover or rockers. The damage was limited to wheels, suspension and rear subframe. By the time it was repaired, (IIRC) the cost was nearly $10K. I know the dealership did not rip him off because he works there, and kept an eye on costs.
