if you take off the splash guard you should be able to reach up in there... those panels dent pretty easy so it'll still prob leave a crease if it was bad enough.
so you are in anaheim, planning on attending any socal meets? -------------------- |

depending on how bad the dent is it might chip the paint. if you are worried about causing more damage yourself, then there are those paintless dent removal places that will come to your house and work their magic, if they can, for a fairly reasonable price.
this is the next Socal Meet -------------------- |

yeah, we discussed that on the last one that poped up 2 days ago. The plunger if it's big enough, stick it and rip it suction cups if its smaller, and if it's smaller than that then heat it up with a blow dryer and put ice cubes on it.
Plus the traditional way of getting underneith it and pushing it out. -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!! D-man FTW!
