I have a couple of hardly noticeable hairline cracks where the rear wings meet the roof pillar (c pillar?). Fernies tell me that these are just stress cracks and very common.
Anyone else had this prob?
I am thinking about having them repaired but am not goin to bother if they are just going to come back.

Yes i have the similar problem just very fine hairline cracks. I think alot has to do with the colour of the vehicle if the show or not. I was also told not to worry about it.

whatever

I've got one or two in exactly the same place. I'd call it the B pillar, though, with there not being one in the middle where the B normally is

I've got exactly the same on my 96 Cerbera - perhaps I won't worry about them having seen this thread......

Fernies are correct. They are stress cracks and will return no matter what you do. Solution: paint the car a dark colour.
