if its rippled bad liek im thinking. Pulling it out with a stud gun would probably not work. When its rippled bad the metal is stretched and would ripple outwards if pulled. Best deal is hamer and dolly it out if you can reach it from the back side just so you dont have to put too much "mud" or "bondo" on the door. If its excessivly bad get a door skin or if you dont have skills to put a skin on find a used door in good shape. Line it up so your gaps are even and teh latches dont catch. Blend that whole side of the car so it matches. Then its back to good again. Hope that helped
