ABSTRACT
Contemporary vehicles have more and more elements of the bodywork made of composites. The advantages are undoubtedly weight reduction and increased corrosion resistance. On the other hand, accidental repairs are becoming difficult, however, in case of minor deformation there is often no permanent deformation. The authors have asked themselves how the strength of composite bodyworks varies over time and in case of minor accidental damage, qualifying the element for further use. The paper presents the results of research on the structure and strength of composite body elements of selected vehicles. Undamaged components and plating parts that were damaged during the collision were examined.
