Body repairs affect your car's resis-
tance to corrosion. If your car needs
repairs after a collision, pay close
attention to the parts used in the
repair and the quality of the work.
Make sure the repair facility uses
genuine Acura replacement body
parts. Some companies make sheet-
metal pieces that seem to duplicate
the original Acura body parts, but are
actually inferior in fit, finish, and
quality. Once installed, they do not
give the same high-quality appear-
ance and level of corrosion resis-
tance.

When reporting your collision to the
insurance company, tell them you
want genuine Acura parts used in the
repair. Although most insurers
recognize the higher quality of
original parts, some may try to
specify that the repairs be done with
the "lowest cost" parts available. You
should investigate this before any
repairs are begun.
Take your car to your Acura dealer
for inspection after the repairs are
completed. He can make sure that
quality materials were used, and that
corrosion-preventive coatings were
applied to all repaired and replaced
parts.
