Not my car, it’s the cheap one in Santa Ana.
It flexes when you push up on it. Yikes. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-179-1548185843_thumb.jpg) |

That part isnt structural more than that it spreads the load from the jack. On my car it was only connected with a few spotwelds and with water getting between the sheets the minute the car left the factory its all down to time. Once one spot weld lets go it increases the load on the others so then the process accelerates. I dont think the car has hit anything in that area if it was it would have taken a much larger hit on the rear suspension arm/points.
