#103772, "Underside Dents"


          

Hey guys just wondering if it would be expensive to get these dents out from my car. Looks the one of the previous owners used these spot to mount the car on jack stands.






And here is I dent that happened after I hit an uneven man hole on the shittiest still under construction since for ever road in Orlando.





This one is hard to see in the pic but where you see the huge scratch there is a pretty big sized dent.

Honestly, for the cost it would take for a shop to do it, I'd just invest in a set of stock sideskirts and call it a day. But if you don't want those, they don't look that bad, could probably do it yourself with a little time and patience.

X2. That's what I did and well worth it. Makes it look a million times lower too. And it made all of those unsightly scratches and scraped go away (or at least hid them). I wrecked mine in March through a ditch and under the pass. side it looked like I was grinding a rail and used my car as a skate board. But... can't see it now. You'd never know.

I CONTRIBUTED TO THE WIKI!
ah... turbo. I love the turbo, the boost, the speed, the sound.
and its all better when you do it yourself. cheaper too.

I did have a quick thought for that first pic. You might want to put the pinch weld back into place with some vice grips at least so that skirts will fit there.

Do what ronin said and you might wanna do what azdave done with the underside. He welded sheet metal to reinforce undersides so it won't crumble when you jack the side up.
