Just realise today under the bright sun, THERES A FUKEN FIST SIZE DENT on the passenger side above the rear wheel, its like 2cm from the middle to the back above the rear wheel, how am i meant to get behind it and pump it back out since its not normal soft wheel guards, and i try from the boot, ripped the carpet out and theres another metal piece behind it. what to do?

Use a slide hammer (aka Dent Puller). Problem is though when a dent like this occurs the metal is stretched so just popping it out is only the beginning of the repair process.

I know how you feel, some lark hit my FTO when it was in a car park and did a runner. 2 weeks later it got keyed down the fron fender. After all this I got the whole thing resprayed and now only drive it on cruises. Bought a cheap run-about for when I goto work and shops etc.

Good luck with the repairs.
