1/4's creased from chassis flex??

It may seem like a stupid question to some, but I'm curious if the chassis/unibody could use a straightening after a crease is starting to surface in the rear 1/4 panel where there is a corner by the hatch.

I know about the bad problem with the flex and have seen some bad examples, and heard of some cars where the doors don't even close properly. I obviously don't want this to happen to my car, so I'm curious if a frame straightening, or whatever would be necessary before installing SFC's. Thanks to all in advance.

No clue. Just becuase it flexed doesn't mean its out of shape either. Thats why I always suggest SFCs an one of, if not the first mods.
