Default buckled fenders

is there any way to pop out a buckled fender?

some kid pulled my fenders and didnt apply that much heat like a dumbass and my rear fender buckled. its not a crease. it just looks like a dent where a fat person leaned on the car.

thanks

An inner fender prevents you from doing a proper PDR, though you can call one up and see if they're able to work with it. By the way, heat has nothing to do with whether the fender buckles or not. If you're using a fender roller to do a crazy pull, then you better know what you're doing. From my experience, it's almost impossible to dent a quarter panel on accident. Chances are though, if you needed a wide pull to fit some wheels, then you probably needed a bodyshop visit anyway.

shouldn't let a "kid" roll your fenders, a PDR shop may be able to fix it. Good Luck

If it's the same kind of dent that I'm thinking of I'd say you're pretty screwed. I hate to say it but only a body shop is getting it out. You can only pull the rear quarters so much without risking the quarter panel caving in on you.

People need to realize that a fender roller is made for ROLLING. It's made by Eastwood, not Hogwarts.
