Another pic showing the slight warping of the aluminum panels after welding. The vast majority of the warping is restricted to these panels because of the shallow (flat) shape of the side of the fender and the long weld. I chose the worst picture on purpose. The other welds do not warp nearly as much. (See the above photo on the nose of the car.)

The warping is easily fixed by a competent body man.
