Metal parts have original paint; plastic parts and easily damaged parts cannot be inspected; front bumper lower guard plate has scratches; a dashcam was installed; the right rear tire has minor scratches.
Many car owners do not have their first maintenance done at authorized dealerships, leading to gaps in early data. In such cases, we do not blindly trust the odometer; instead, we analyze the tire production dates and wear levels, as well as the depth of grooves on the brake disc edges, using the "gold standard" of physical wear to infer the intensity of early use.
We use a calibrated high-precision paint thickness gauge to take multiple measurements on at least 13 metal surfaces of the entire vehicle. The original paint thickness of mainstream Chinese models typically ranges from 90μm to 150μm. If any area exceeds 200μm or even reaches over 500μm, we will directly conclude that the area has undergone bodywork and filler repair.
The method to deceive the dashboard warning light is to install a resistor. Our technicians will deeply read the real-time resistance values from the airbag control module (SRS Module) data stream and check for any non-factory stitching or adhesive marks on the steering wheel/passenger panel to uncover the disguise.
