What could this run me to fix? OK first off let me tell you I understand this is a long shot with the terrible picture I have.
I am working out a deal for this 98 TA and should have it on Wed. It has a big dent in the side right behind the door, the door didn't get hit.
I really don't know much about body work so I'm not sure if this requires cutting out or if they can pull out some and smooth it.
Does anyone have any ideas or ballpark guess what a shop will charge? (not macco)

Shitty pic. . . . . . I put a bigger dent in my z28 when I backed into a garage(yes, I know. . .this was beyond stupid). I took the whole dent out myself, I did not think it was possible. . . . I was at it for about 14 hours. No Bondo, no paint. . . . Just a lot of mallet work and a lot of smoothing and shaping. . . .
It really can vary, man. . . . . My dent was bad and did not look easily fixable. . . But, I just wanted to give it a shot.
