Are these dents fixable?
Let’s skip the story cause I’m upset af already. Lol.
I got these dents, Will this be an easy fix for a body shop? Would PDR work? Any recommendations at a shop that can take care of the damage around Orange County? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

If by fixable you mean PDR, then no. If by fixable you mean replace the quarter panel and paint, then yes.

Easy enough job. Some spot welds and some beating. (Or lots of bog)
Not suitable for PDR though, well not under the door, you might be able to get in behind the section infront of the wheel, maybe. Biggest cost will be paint. Ouch I'm not a panel beater, I've just dented alot of panels over the years.

I mean, I'm just a dude on the internet way too late at night. Whatever the body shop says is what they will do. But I'd be prepared for that answer if I were you. I really doubt you can just pop that back out and it look any better than it does now.

I doubt you can pull that out. If you can weld, I see replacement rocker panels for $100 pop up on eBay once in a while.

talk to a body shop. that is structural, i'm concerned that crimping on the bottom part that's not visible might be damaged and is affecting the structural integrity of the chassis.

Luckily all the bottom is straight. It was just a curb dent. I checked the bottom and it wasn’t a big enough hit to damage anything further than the rocker. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Definitely go around and get quotes from shops, but if you really don’t see any structural damage, I’d say go with the side skirts fuck it lol

I check bottom and nothing is bend or out of place. Everything is straight even the very bottom of the rockers. I was considering it but i still want the dents straightened out. And paint later. Or just do side skirts. Lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
