GM treats the Bolt as if it is something totally new with the use of many alu body panels and high strength steel alloy, but most body shops have already plenty experience with the Nissan Leaf, the only difference I know is that the front fenders of the Leaf are still sheet steel alloy, while the Bolt apparently has alu fenders. But the Leaf doors are also alu, as I found out when I tried to work on the damaged driver door in the Salvage Leaf that I bought. I needed a *big* hammer to get the front lip of the door into the shape I wanted and I had to watch out or it crumbled. This was just to make the driver door operate normally (not to make it look good) until I was able to find an undamaged door to replace it. Which happened a month later. Body shop did not blink an eye when I asked them to work on the EV, they only asked how to turn it on and off.
