Question on the DM 62 Thunderbird LE. Are there small depressions behind the body side moulding where the attaching holes are stamped (cast?)? Each door on mine has noticable "dents". Although I doubt it, I'm wondering if they are all like that.

Mine has the dents...

...I was sort of hoping the chrome trim would have been photoetched - so that I could remove it if I so chose. It's obvious that holes were put into the body & doors to help align the locating pins on the plastic side trim.
