Brand new with a dented roof

Same for the door things I mentioned earlier..

At any rate??

They are located above and behind the driver side / rear passengers head,
flowing inwards towards the center of the vehicle.

It will be a shallow indentation about the size of a paper plate,
with no sharp edges or creases. On my 2 black H3's it's been pretty easy to spot,
Not sure about the lighter colors. Look from the front towards the rear
at an angle. If it's there, you will see it regardless of which step you are
standing on (DS vs. PS).

I noticed it on my '06, immediately, as well as the door creases. I looked very closely at both issues, and found that they were not dented, but the way the metal was pressed out during manufacture.

I see your red H3, and it does look like a dent, but looking at my H3, out of my upstairs window, I see the same thing in the same place. I know it isn't dented, but from a certain view at a certain angle, it looks terrible.

I never thought much about these issues, until I read this thread, so figured I'd chime in and let you know you're not alone.
