Default Advise on sills
Just bought a shell for a long term project ( HOPEFULLY TO TURN INTO A SHOW CAR ), only problem is the sills are bent over were some muppet has used a trolley jack. Would you advise new sills or just strighten them out ?

Any advise greatful.

PS the car is an evo 6.

Cheers

If your getting the shell sprayed, just get new sills welded on. Should add too much to the cost
