Corrected entry: Mr Han says he smashes his car once per year and is then rebuilding it. Giving the state of the car after he smashed it in the movie, he is certainly in the wrong job. He has a career as panel beater in front of him. Assuming the car looks every year the same after he is "finished" with it the look of the car before he smashed it was rather stunning. All panels were straight, no visible damage. Even the frame was a complete write off beforehand and looked more it was run over by a tank.

Correction: We see the car at the end of it's 'repair cycle'; after Han has spent a whole year fixing it. He works on it every day and only repairs the cosmetic damage - he's only trying to make it look the way it did before the accident. After years of smashing and repairing the car he is getting very good at it, and the pieces damaged beyond repair (glass, mirrors, ets) are obviously swapped out with replacement parts.
