Max69vk Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 Any bodyshop should be able to use a tag/slide hammer welder to pull it back out again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted April 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 (edited) Any bodyshop should be able to use a tag/slide hammer welder to pull it back out again.Its stabbed the side with an angle, so theres a big deep "V" in the bodywork... Needs a new full rear quarter i think... Lucky its the side that was already damaged... Edited April 7, 2007 by nfbr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfbr Posted April 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 (edited) dont want ANY filler on the car cos i dont want it to look a messFiller pretty much always cracks, and black paint doesnt ever seem to set right on filler... Always looks Orange Peal. Edited April 7, 2007 by nfbr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulbin Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 filler doesnt crack if its been done properly. If the dent was pulled out properly and levelled with a panel hammer then it would only need a few skims of filler to fix, and black paint not sitting right on filler? orange peel is only ever in the clear top coat which can be flatted to look like glass.

nfbr Posted April 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 I'm probably just paranoid about the black paint thing as i've never seen a black car repaired that doesnt look like ass.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake-VW Posted April 8, 2007 Report Share Posted April 8, 2007 Same things happened to my car. Hope you get it sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupo_1.0 Posted April 8, 2007 Report Share Posted April 8, 2007 (edited) that can be done mate no probs. and if you didnt want any filler then you will be looking at a whole side of the car not just a rear 1/4 as you will have to get the whole sill and the whole piller from front wing. just seems to be a lot more work then needed with the spraying on top of all that too.but that dent can be palled out, also the line above, maybe then tapped out then a thin skim of filler and then apply the stonechip again,(iam not a panel beater so may have missed a few things lol)and like paulbin said the orange peal is down to the paint side of things but can be sorted out anyway.

Mitchell Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 i'd rather have filler than a hadrians panel or any other pattern part for that matter, that dent will push forward from inside i have seen whole sides repaired that have been a 100 times worse than that using filler, your panick is ott you'll never know it was there, where as if the car had a quarter on it if you know what your looking for you'll find it, if i view a car i pull off the door shut rubbers to see what the spot welds are like and also remove a rear panel to see if the panels inside is in transport primer or the factoryy stuff, for a dent that size mate i'd have filler all day.hadrians panel £65 vw genuine £170 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted April 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 hmmYou make a good point...I've Tried to get into where the damage is from behind the door panel and its near on impossible... I lose my entire arm down the side before i can even touch the damaged area, never mind use any force on it.I'm pretty sure one of thems Suction/Slide hammer things should be able to pull the majority of it back into shape! Then it'd only need a light skim over with filler, as the main area of where its pysically bent the surface is on the hammered bit of the sill...

lupo_1.0 Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 My Hadrian Panels catalogue seems to say otherwise.but the rear panel is welded to just behide thelight, the to the roof and that panel follows the roof all the way down to the front wing, it is then welded under the door rubbers all the way around, and then the sill in also art of the rear 1/4.the rear 1/4 is that whole red thing, so it would be easyer to just cut it in places and not replace all of that. border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
