looks like body shop will have to paint your rear quarter and bumper...silver is not an easy match

Seeing how washing the car didnt get rid of the dent.
Choose from the following options:

1.Take the rear bumper and fender off and dance all over it. Get some work boots.
2. Get the Veilside V3 widebody and the overfenders will cover the dent.
3. Sell the car for an RSX(type S yo!!)

i would take it to a body shop, thats why you have insurance for things like that


but assuming thats redish brown paint and not rust or dog poop stain... use scratch out it can clear out alot of the markings made from the scuff mark as for the dent either live with it and drive around and tell people your gf did it or take it to a body shop

if your really cheap or on a budget try to see one of the paintless dent removal guys he can probably help it but not make it close to perfect

there was an awesome dent guy at last years summer huntington beach meet he charged i think $50 a panel special Z price

Lol yeah sorry about the rotating pictures, I just tried to get every angle possible lmao...........

Got a quote at a body shop for 1,000....guess its a good price considering "thats a 2000 dollar body shop job"lol......

and no its not rust........fortunately...

Would it be better to get a paintless dent removal or just the usual drill and pop out?

I just wanted some input because I want a new exhaust BAD!!!!! Only thing Ive done to the car soo far is my sound system...=(

Thanks for the help though guys.....I really appreciate it

just the bumper alone is about 400 bux and paint on it is about 300. so if the shop is going to charge you 300 to repair and paint that quarter panel, thats a bargain. again with paint tho you get what you pay for. hope it works out for ya.
