quarter panel pushed in

[landofvanilla]

My driver side front quarter panel has been pushed in about an inch by asshole kids in the neighborhood. They ran when I approached them. In my day, when we damaged people's cars playing sports, we rang their doorbell and we paid them back. Kids these days.

Anyways it's an 04 camry, is the dent able to be popped back out? If not, I seriously don't want to pay 300+ at a bodyshop to fix it. If i can scrap a quarter panel at a junkyard and replace it myself I'd rather do that. Any suggestions?

damn kids....

check around, I would imagine my body guy could beat the 300 mark easily, but it is a 4 hour drive for ya. Check around, paintshops are competitive about prices

is there a creese in the steel? if not it is a real easy fix. i would beabule to do it. but agine i'm nowhere close to you. but if there is no need to paint the dent after it is fixed (i.e. cracked chiped or paint is missing.) try a paintless dent remover comp. dont try the crap you see on TV thay dont work. GOOD LUCK

edit if you got a pic. we could give you a better answer
