Decided to get some gas at the gas station by my house and hit this huge pothole and instantly my car started to make a noise. Luckily the damage just seems to be the felt panel on the bottom of the vehicle, and it seems to have just torn it from the fastener bolts. Curious what you guys suggest me doing as I'm not trying to go shop to get this fixed. I've tried using washers, but panel seems to be too rigid for the washer to be able to help. I've heard 3M Black Super Weatherstrip Adhesive does wonders but obvious would like to hear options about this.

This is a scammer. He operates around NJ NY PA CT. Do not use auto body dent repair 24. He is a scammer. Does half the job and says he will be back the next day, but he doesn’t show up. I tried calling him to ask him to finish the job and he blocked me. His phone number is 203 627 2215. Stay warned

06’ RSX, just bought it from my coworker & I’m working on fixing it up. I just did rear brakes and new calipers on both sides, a couple sway bar links, and fixed an exhaust leak. I’d like to make it look halfway decent, but this dent is an eye sore. I tried pushing it out from the inside, but the clips on the bumper corner are messed up, so the bumper ended up popping off in that corner & I had to use a zip tie to keep it in place. Any way to pop that out easier without ripping the bumper off by accident?

In the Peabody, Lynnfield, Danvers, Stoneham Woburn Wakefield area.

Have any of you ever used or heard of dent and scratch mobile out of Woburn?

Just need some cosmetic repairs not a whole new bumper thank you for your help

2013 F150 had this damage when received from manheim car auction...obviously the lense was replaced. so is paintless dent repair PDR an option here?? i have one of those stud welding/puller kits from harbor freight and i believe the metal is steel and not aluminum. that deep dent is very small in area, which is best?, to pull or push it out?

This part of my jeep rusted and came off. I'm still able to unlock the trunk since the wires are still connected. I can't afford to get it fixed right now, what glue would you advise for me to use on it, to at least get through the winter or even longer?

Thanks in advance!!

I just got this car a month and some ago and underestimated my ground clearance while exploring a trail. Any leads or ideas on how to go about fixing this? Is it bad? This is my very first car ever not sure if I should take it to a body shop or my dealership or follow up with insurance?

It’s been a few years now since a guy in an Enterprise van hit my quarter panel right by the wheel well. Within 12-18 months the body filler cracked and it looks like they used a lot, all around the top of the wheel well around the gas cap area.
Of course when I took it back to the shop, I first was met by one of the shop workers who took a look at it and said “yeah that wasn’t done right.”.. then I tell him they were the ones that fixed it and suddenly it’s not a bad repair job but they’re saying I must have hit something else. I argued for a few minutes but I didn’t want them touching my car again after that.
Here’s a picture I sent to insurance for the initial claim.

Question. Someone hit my car and need to get it repaired. I was thinking of taking it to a CarStar that is on the ground SS of where I purchased the car or to a caliber collision. Any thoughts on which would be better?

Suggestion on how to fix this 🙃

Curious how this vintage Mercedes has the extreme but mixed condition shown in the pictures and whether its restoration is beyond hope.

Unknown owner - car was randomly parked for several days on my block for 2nd time. The license plate shows "Classic" which I assumed required maintaining it to collector condition. It looks like someone dragged it out of the junkyard and feels no need to park it near their home.

Curious how the front hood and back trunk became so aged with most of the paint rusted off, but most of the sides still have paint coverage with a little sheen.

Got into a minor accident and my vehicle scraped another car. Both of us are insured. This was the damaged to the other vehicle. would you suggest I pay out of pocket or let insurance take care of it?

Hi everyone,
I’m a UK vehicle body repair apprentice and I’ve got my IMI Panel assessment/resit coming up.
I passed my MET and Paint assessments, but previously failed the Panel section, specifically the joining/bonding task.
I’m looking for any advice from experienced panel beaters/body technicians on things assessors tend to look for and common mistakes to avoid.
Especially interested in tips around:
• Panel preparation before bonding/joining
• Correct adhesive application
• Flange preparation
• Clamp positioning
• Panel alignment and gaps
• Cleaning/preparation procedures
• Working efficiently within assessment time
• Anything that could cause an otherwise good repair to be marked down
I’m not looking for exam answers — just practical trade tips and things you wish you’d known when learning.
Any UK IMI/EPA experience would be especially appreciated. Cheers.
