Had a minor run in with a post and need advice. How much you reckon this will cost to fix. Will the dent just pop back out. Anyone have any reccomendations of people to take it too to fix?

Hope these piccies work!

Cheers

Erm Dent master should be able to sort that for around £40....and they'll come to you.

Otherwise, that panel will need repairing and resprayin, lookin around £300 for that.

Reason i know is coz i just put my car in for it's rear 1/4 to be repaired.

Thats a genuine Steinmetz filler cap. Rip it off, sell it and use the cash to fix the dent

I had both my rear quarters sprayed and my b pillars welded for £160 so £200 for one rear quarter is a bit steep.

That dent will pop out nice anyway mate, I have a very small dent in the same place which is hardly noticable

cheers for comments guys. I am a little worried it will still leave a crease in it. Back is 35mm drop. Gonna get more when I switch to 15's. If I ever get round to it. I'm so skint at the minute it sucks!
