Light dents in roof panel above rear doors

A couple of minor dents along the roof curve down above rear doors. Barely noticeable with silver but there.
Common?

Unfortunately, the dents don't show up in pics. Barely seen if you they are there and with silver.

If you look at the rear body panel, there is a welded seam above the rear doors, that is the dents you are talking about. I have a 2018 RDX Advanced and it has the same seam line, you can only see it if you look at an angle.

Panel Set, L Rear (Outer) - Acura (04646-STX-405ZZ)

Thanks, Dave!
I don't think I had the dents on my slate silver '16 Advance but it was a lease I didn't fuss over.
OCD when I own.

$1717 list for that part. Wow!

You're Welcome colt427,

I noticed it when waxing the car, It is a shame that Acura didn't finish the seam correctly. For a luxury car this is not acceptable, very poor fit and finish.

Noticed it the same way waxing today in my garage the first time after installing nice bright LED ceiling lighting. I somehow never saw it my 4 months or so of having the RDX.
Thanks again.
