    it can be fixed with engine in though will be a pain so i would say its an engine out job for sure.

    It's not a race car, or a show car. Just a toy :p Won't be seeing any serious track action, mainly just hooning around in the mountains and annoying the neighbors :br:

    I'll pull all the trim off the inside of the back of the car and the rear bar and the exhaust and have a proper look and measure. I'll post back with more info next weekend.

    I have a mate of a mate who is a old school panel beater, so may have to take it to him.

    My room mate has an integra that had a ding down a very sharp line in the rear 1/4. We all had our doubts as to whether or not it would come out, but a paintless dent removal guy did an amazing job. He's so good that he goes overseas on behalf of insurance when big hail storms hit.

    Look up Un Dint It, the dude I'm talking about is in Brisbane and did a fantastic job.

    If your really desperate come and see me, I can fix this and you wont even know that its been subject to a hoon trying to impress. I do have a Auspec rear bar, but I can work with a Jap spec.

    Thanks Martin, I'll give you a yell if I get stuck :) Aus-spec won't fit as it's a 2 seater, wish it did though, makes fitting number plates a lot easier.

    if ya doin a respray soon any way giv fixin it a shot. i drilled a teck screw into my dent a few times and pulled it out best i could then body filled it,...then sanded it flat. the side dent looks pretty easy to pull out n fix but cant really see how bad the rear is. if ur gettin it resprayed they should be able to fix that up for not much more than respray cost anyway tho. i smashed the shit out of mine and managed to fix it pretty well. check my thread

    I just made a new FG skin to go over the offending area :p although mine was a little deeper than yours, and mines also now a track pig, so body perfection just means I'm not trying hard enough...
