I know there are people on this site that do their own bodywork to their car. I'm gonna try to do some of the work myself over the next couple of days. I know that it is not a simple project, but I want to try. Can someone tell me a list of (necessary) things I'll need to buy in order to do it. I have a dent in the passenger rear quarter panel and a couple of dents along the door and front right fender. I'll try to post some pics of the dents I'm talking about.
This could also be a chance for someone to post a How-To article on it. Thanks in advance for the help. |

Okay, so I finally posted pics in my profile and I put pics up on Imagestation (look at signature). I already know I have to replace the door. Tell me what you think I need to do to repair it. Remember, I'm just a beginner but I figure I can't make it look any worse by trying. I'm willing to put in the time i just need the know-how. Thanks in advance for the help.
