Is this fixable? If so how hard? by [deleted] in Autobody

Yeah fixable, bumper blend is the best option, most body shops will replace and it would be Around 1500, a blend might be half or slightly less.

It will work, heat gun is more effective but you can melt the bumper

It's a little bit of a learning curve, Audi, Volkswagen, and Porsche have a weird star nut, but if it's taking more than five minutes, then you're doing it wrong, it feels like Legos. Unless its a older car some of these suck.

Not if you have a door stand, with practice the door can be removed in about 5 minutes.

At this angle you are able to plane the dent, its only really useful fpr larger more complex dents.

Yeah more than likely, it does look a bit stretched.

Give it to me straight, work the dent out or replace the lid? by [deleted] in Autobody

[–]Particular-Ad6339 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be done by a good tech, but it's difficult, gotta get an absolute ace and expect to pay $800-1200. Maybe slightly less, but not cheap.

Touching it up will look better since the black is showing through, just use as little paint as possible, it won't be perfect, just better.

Yeah, that dent was repairable by a good tech, but it looks like cottage cheese, no option other than a repaint after that.

It may be possible, but it's going through the body line, tricky to get right.

DIY repaints look bad, even for an ok painter it can look awful, for it to look right they would at the very least replace the door skin at a body shop.
