Then re fill it using some evercoat filler. feather it out and prime it, then block it out , then scuff the whole quarter with gray or red scotch brite then paint it. done deal.. and dont worry if i had bady work done/ has filler in it I put filler in cars with 5 10 miles on them all the time at the dealer I work at. Just save that baby before she gets worse.. let me know if u have any ? and ill be sure to answer them!
Do most places prefer to not cut and weld? What type of cost is to be expected? 1000 dollar range for cutting, welding, paint and blend the panel plus the cost of panel?
