Default Optical Illusions.

Was out at a coffee night and took this picture with some friends, once I got home I enlarge the pic and noticed this on the 1/4 panel. Scared some friends with the picture. LOL.

It looks like it was a pretty stiff hit & run behind the door.
Glad it was an illusion

Baron is correct, right behind the drivers door is a reflection off of a building giving the effect of telephone pole hit in 1/4 panel.
Looks worse the bigger you enlarge it.

I have the same problem with my Le Mans.

Depending on the light and angle it looks like it’s been involved in a collision, also makes the paint job look a little patchy in some spots……
