You have to drill out all the spots welds to start off. It is all glued in some spots. Unless you are replaneing it before of damge, dont even think about taking it off. It is a pain in the ***.

My quarter panel has a dent in it from some @$$hole in a parking lot. I attempted to knock it out from inside, but it cracked my paint some. I'd like to see some pics of this process if anyone has some.

i own a collision repair shop. if you can have that panel repaired right you need to have it repaired. you never want to start cutting sheet metal off a car unless there are no other means of repair. unless you have a large amount of experiance in doing this, you really shouldn't try it. if by some grace of god you get it to fit right, you still have to worry about rust issues.
