View Full Version : New scratch -_-

So I was parking at the supermarket by one of those huts that they store the shopping carts in. I didn`t notice that a metal bar was sticking from it and as I parked my car I heard my rear quarter panel go in and as I reversed out, I heard it pop out. The good news is that there isn`t a huge dent... Bad news is there`s a scratch that is sorta pushed into the quarter panel. It`s night right now so I couldn`t get better pictures but here`s the damage.

I am wondering how much this would cost to fix or is it even possible because I have no idea how to tackle this. I know it just looks like a scratch but imagine that it`s indented.



I will try and get better pictures tomorrow.

PDR and a wetsand. Is the dent a crease?

pretty heavy swirling, i agree a wetsand is in order

Yeah, the dent is more like a crease. That`s why I am scared that it can`t be fixed easily.

Here are some better pictures. It`s actually not as bad as I thought it was. In these pictures you can see the crease that I`m talking about.

I think a really good PDR guy could get that pretty close to perfect, but it hard to gauge the depth based on the photo.

I don`t think they could get it perfect, but atleast 60-70% gone.

It`s not that deep at all so hopefully they can get it to 100% =)



How much would a repair like this normally go for?
