come on its not that bad

First you need to move your quarter scoop, then the window moulding and trim, rear bumper. Then you need to get your trusty drill and drill out about 100-200 spot welds (just guessing on the number) and simly remove. If its the passenger side you need to accomidate the fuel filler neck. If you have never done body work or anything like this, i wouldnt suggest making it your first attempt.

Naw man its my drivers side. Its had a crease dent since I bought the car. There aren't any abrasions nor paint chipped or missing. I think this would be the type of work for a body shop, just I don't think its to worth while, after all its not a gt.

A body shop can spot weld some rivet type thingys in the crease. Then put a slide hammer on the rivet tails and pull the crease out. Add filler to smooth it all out, prime and paint

My first attempt at body work was replacing 2 rear quarter panels and sanding/priming/painting my '74 Nova when I was 15. Looked awesome. Didn't hurt that my uncles own a body shop and taught me how to do it and let me use their tools. =D
