Default question about body work

hi guys, so i backed up into a pylon in a parking lot this weekend like a noob. I was wondering if this is something i might be able to pop it out with a pop-a-dent kit or if this is something i have to take into a shop.







Does anyone know any reputable shops in the orange county area? thanks again

you could probably diy but worse case scenario try these guys: http://www.wefixuglydents.com/paintl...Littleton.html in CO or
http://wefixdings.com/california/ora...y_ca/index.htm in OC, CA

they're local to you and you might be able to work out a deal if you advertise for them on forums

You can never just pop a dent out.

It looks like the edge of the quarter panel is pushed in, I'd leave it to someone that knows what they're doing. Good body work takes practice, it's not something you can just read about and do a good job on on the first try.

Like others have said, pay a pro to do it. You have a beautiful car. A pro shop will make it look like factory new. You will be 100% happy, as it is an "easy fit." Don't go half-*** DIY to save $$$. It will bother you and cost you more than $$$$.
