Default Can this dent be pulled?



This comes courtesy of Maine winters. Fortunately there was no damage to the other car.

It's hard to see, but the paint is fine other than a small scratch or two. SO can the panel be saved or do I have to buy a new one? It's going to be $5-600 for sure if I buy new. None of the junkyards I've searched so far even have Integras.

TIA

Z3 fenders yo!! Don't tempt me.

The $5-600 I quoted was for new with painting etc. The panel alone is like $300.

Believe me, I'd like to find a used one. Living in Maine makes this tricky - we don't even have an Acura dealership in this state. [cue music: Dueling Banjos]

Guess I'll keep looking, thanks guys.

they come painted, just OEM colors cause they are pulled off of front clips.
