hi guys

i bought my ST just under 6 months ago and am beginning to worry it has had some serious damage to it
when purchased it had the side stripes which i removed to find that the o/s back and front and rear drivers side panels had had a respray as removing the stripes left indents in the paint (but not on the drivers door)
i presumed from this it has had some minor damage and then a cheap respray (spraying over the stripes -.-)
however i recently decided to give it a deep clean so removed the back seats and as much carpet as i could without having to take off the plastics and i found this:





All this sealant looks like it's covering something and surely wouldnt be anywhere near this messy if put there form factory
Am i right to be worried? anyone got any idea of why its like this?!

Thanks for any help guys

 

the sealler in the 2nd pic is ok but the first pic shows that the car has been hit from the side as the floor area around the b post base is damaged

 

Yeah i noticed that in the first pic bottom right of the blue bit looks creased like its had a rear quarter crash, this would also tie in with paint but not on the door!

ETA You mention O/S has had paint but it looks like the N/S is the side with the crease, remove the rear quarter trim and have a nose behind, both sides.
