Car is a 95 M3. My pictures are the silver car. I have "crumpled" areas on both front strut towers. Does anyone else have these? Checking internet pictures, I have found a few that do, but looks like most don't. My car has the strut reinforcements on top of the camber plate and a front strut bar. I have no noticeable "mushrooming".

The blue car is pictures from a "how to repair front strut towers" DIY from a reputable web site. However, they repair the top only, that was cracked, and it looks like they left the crumpled area alone.

So the question is: is this "crumpled" area normal? Anyone else have this?
