Damn I'm sorry man. Could the little sh*t have chosen a worse place to hit? Fenders, bumpers, doors - removable. The damned quarter panel? Nope. Luckilly it should be a fairly easy repair for a qualified shop. The most difficult part may be restoration of the crease. Let us know the outcome. Sorry again man - that sux.

PS - what the hell was he driving? An SUV?
It's a SHE and yep, some Suzuki crap SUV. At first, I too wished it had been the door....but my son was back there so I'll take the 1/4 panel. It will going to the BMW body shop over in east hollywood.

There may be more damage then meets the eye. Since the wheel was struck I'm 100% sure that there is aligment damage if not suspension damage. The same thing happened to my girlfriends parents car. Since the damage is in the rear you wont feel the misaligment but you have to get everything repaired properly. Also try running over a small pothole, check if it makes a louder knock than before. Sorry so hear that happen. Well I guess that kid learned his lesson in driving carelessly, since his insurance will skyrocket for the next 5 years.

honestly....looks cosmetic, go to a dent specialist, should be max 300-400 to get those dents out. Not sure about letting a 16year old drive that kind of car in the future.

The paint is scraped a few places around the wheel well lip and the Bangle creases are dented. Looks like a 1/4 panel replacement. That does sucketh.
