Hard to guess costs since they can be very regionally based but here that would be an easy $2K repair. Not a candidate for PDR so would involve some cutting, filing and paint.
Or you could get a set of cheap Ebay skirts, touch up the missing paint and just cover it up. Not the best way to go about it but if the price of the car is right it would at least hide it.

Hello luluxdotbm and welcome to ye ol forum

I reckon a good PDR (Paintless Dent Repair) person could push that dent right out for a couple of hundred dollars.

Looks like it is time for STi (style) side skirts; they go up on the body a bit and can cover damage.

Thank you man. I'm really hoping to be having a brz but the dent is enough to make me walk away. The deal isn't so bad but isn't great either. :/ Seems every Frs or Brz I look at has this dent on the body and its upsetting.

Wow, you can tell it slipped off a jack; that's not a correct jack point either.


I'd say that's a minor amount of damage and can be covered up. If the deal is right I'd jump on it. The dent is a good bargaining point too.
