Default really quick sfc question!

I'm getting the boxed style UMI sfc's but my jack points in the front are kind of concaved upward from where I guess the previous owner used a small floor jack to jack the car up with. Am I going to have to some how pop it down so it'll have a level surface to weld to? Thanks for the help fellas.

As long as the outer perimeter isn't deeply crushed or really uneven, you'll be fine. You'll just have to put a thicker bead where it's dented. If the indentation is in the center, you're good to go, since obviously you're not welding there.
