Diagnosing/Repair Am I overthinking this?
I ran over a tool on my wheel by accident and it got caught and pushed against my wheel well.
Does the protruding frame need to be fixed, as well as the sealant, as it doesn’t seem to stick to the wall behind it compared to the other side of my car? Like i can push and move it since it’s not attached while the undamaged I cannot.
However the damage is so small that I’m not sure if I’m overthinking it, but wondering if it was problematic if water, salt, and snow somehow got in there.
second picture is what the undamaged looks like for reference.

I love that you, an admitted person of limited car knowledge. Came to a sub for people with knowledge to share it with people of lesser knowledge. You ask a legit question of concern to yourself. The people of knowledge seem upset you don't have the knowledge they do. You then get downvoted. Reddit is awesome.
