Default strut tower flexing

does everyones cars have the stress/stretch mark thingies on your strut towers? Bakeoff just pointed that out to me yesterday at a meet, and said it was somewhat normal, i was like :wtf: ?

I have a 6th gen civic, anyone else notice this? its like the metal is kinda getting crunched/stretched/twisted a bit, you can see some stress areas in the metal.

Anyone hear about problems with this?

Maybe i should stop doing clutch drops and sliding around corners :rick:
