2010 C30-T5 "Fixing a dented rear panel".

Post by BenB »

I backed my 2010 Volvo C30 T5 into my father's truck. He's not too pissed , but we need to fix it. The damage to the car is that the portion of the panel just underneath the passenger side tail light is dented pretty bad. Is there any way to fix this at home? If not how much do you think this would cost to fix?

Can't you just pop the bumper cover off and oilcan it back out?

I would imagine removing the bumper cover would allow you to 'pop' it back into shape. Maybe a little heat from a heat gun or hair dryer would make it a little more flexable.
