Default BODY SEAMS ??
along near the top edge of my rear fenders i can barely see a faint "line" about 1/2" wide...you have to look REAL closely and get at just the right angle to see them...they run perfectly parallel to the fender line... i have been told that they are the seams where the mody was molded together...does anybody know anything about this?

If you go to my web site and click on Painting Pic's I think I have a pic of the seams.

That is correct. The body has several seems on it. On the back side of the fenders there are bonding strips that helps join the two pieces together.
