How do I fix a dent and a scratch Options

[cHinaman727]

Just but this Celica, has about a foot by foot dent in the front left fender, to the left of the wheel, how can i get this dent out? I'd rather not buy and paint a replacement. Also, how do I fix a bad scratch with some rust on it. I can get pics up asap. Other than that, this car is decent

do not drill a hole in your fender unless you are doing to weld it back up and put corrosion protection on the back. if you leave the hole and put filler (bondo) over it w/o welding it up it will wick moisture, rust UNDER the paint, the filler will fall off along with the paint.....try using a plunger on the dent if there are no creases or lines, if that doesnt work and you want to get brave, take the fender off the car and use a hammer to massage the metal back into place. use a hammer with a convex head..not a CLAW HAMMER or else you might as well toss it and get another fender. if you're scared of doing the hammer work, try the plunger a few times, try hitting it from the back with your palm, and if that doesn't work well, buy a fender and practice on the damaged one
