The guy claims no frame damage and airbags didn’t deploy. Car has been restored to looking brand new. Attached is a picture of the accident damage. I’m going to have a Mechanic check it out but based on the damage do you guys see any serious problems that could surface in the future? The guy claims …

“The guy” whom ever he is lied to you. This car s a unibody and the frame so called, are reinforcements welded in throughout . With what I can see, it’s not a fender bender.
