  • Working on the Rag maro 4th gen

    I'm thinking of pulling my dent in the passenger side if anyone could give me some pointers that'd be lovely, I'm going to cut it out in summer but for now i would like to pull it out and add some Very little bondo so my car doesn't look like total crap, Then primer the whole camaro dark primer.

    I already took the panel off and I cant see anyway of being able to knock the dent out from the inside. unless there's a secret way lol.

    Here's a picture of when i first got the car, Now i have the Black door and red fender

    I thought one way was to weld a slide hammer to the panel and then you use the slide hammer to hammer away from the car, essentially pulling the body panel with it. I'm not sure if that works or how it's really done, but I would think that's how you'd have to do it. Then you just cut the weld and sand it smooth.

          Looks like your gonna have to replace the 1/4 panel. I'm no body man by any means but does look like the panel is bent by the latch as well.

                  Not good...even if you could make it aestically pleasing, you'd be asking Bondo to be a sharp leading edge on the crease...won't last long.

                  x43 on replacement.

                    It might be possible I could pull it out Very close Sand then Bondo it, but it would only be temporary
