Well a couple of weeks ago I was involved in a hit-n-run at the mall, waited 3 weeks now to see if they caught the person that ran into my car so far no luck....took it to ABRA the other day they wanted 1500+ to get it repaired I was like....I'll pass. What do you guys think I never done auto body before but would rather learn and use the rest of the money to upgrade my suspension. You guys think it would be easy to get this patched up ?? I don't even know where to start.
 I just need a list of the supplies I need to get this fixed up any help or tip is appreciated thanks.  As you can see the wheel arch is pushed in too....   The dent was bigger but I managed to pop the big dent in the middle out.   I know I gotta wash those damn salt off my car.

I though slide hammer was a body hammer ?? I'm more of a DIY guy so I would rather learn anyways then take it to a shop
. The damage doesn't look to bad I think it looks worse because of the salt I'm more worried about trying the get the wheel arch back(Its completly flat) , I have done almost 2 weeks research on this although I never considered fibre glass for the repair I'll look more into that.  And thanks for the offer Joe but I don't like to bother people.
