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.

remy, that looks deep. you can't just fill and paint. it will probably look like hell and fall out. go half way...get it pulled out by a bodyshop then do the rest yourself. a little fiberglass, a little bondo a little elbow grease and voila!! ready for the paint. good luck!
