body panels
I just bought an 06 SI. I ran a carfax and autocheck on the car before buying it. everything turned out excellent.
tonight I was taking a really close look at everything again. I notice when i pull the latch to open the hood, taking a look at the hood before i open it, one side is a few mm higher(driver side) than the other. and also when it closes one side is a little lower than the other by a few mm, not really noticable.
and the gap between the passenger door and fender is a little smaller than the drivers side. on the driver side i can stick my key in between the door and fender but i cant do that on the passenger side.
I looked at the bolts on the hood and the door. nothing looks like it has been removed. none of the bolts are rounded.
do any of you have what i have described?
Owner said it was never in an accident and everything is original.

Re: body panels (fg2si!kid)
the back bumper panel is not curved enough. the corners on each side stick out a tiny bit, and there are a few gaps that aren't the same width. But i'm sure every single person can find some flaw in the body panels (gaps not the same size, panels not lining up perfectly, etc.) no car is gonna be perfect. after all its just a civic put together by robots.

makes sense, just a civic put together by robots
Thanks
