Crap, bent floor board
by putting the jack or jack stands in the wrong place. I myself didn't do it, my brother did as we installed my s-tech's, but either way, is there a way to fix it?
Anyone who knows what I'm talking knows that it doesn't look that good when the floor where you feet goes is raised up a bit.
I stood on it, but that didn't help much.

your bro owes you some money
you would have to take of the carpet and bang it back down with a block on the underside of where you hit...imo take it in to a shop make your bro pay for it

theres actually little arrows that point to the jack spots on the side skirts. look at the very bottom where it starts to curve in you'll see them. they blend in real good so at night they are hard to see but they're there

Dude, it is no big deal as long as there is no hole in your floorboard. I had to bang out my floors with a hammer to make them flat in order to install an amp under each seat. It has very little to do with structural integrity of the car.

The jack stands go where the emergency jack points are- a floor jack only goes nose or tail- look in the manual, there is a spot for floor jack.
I've had it on jack stands where the arrows are now a few times, no problema.

yes, look where the arrows are. if you look like 5-6" away from them towards the center of the car you will see rails with a notch in them, that is the exact spot where you are supposed to put the floor stand.
do your doors / sunroof close fine?
