I agree that the shop didnt want to mess with the rear panel. I took it back three times and with no improvement. I like messing with cars and the fact that Im doing the work makes it worth while to me, no second guessing on other peoples work.
Hey Lex,
At first i was like WTF am i looking for? But i see. That is pretty much BS on them not wanting to fix it. If you need more help bro, just give Alex a call. He does do body work. I got his number in case u need it.

Posted some pics of the original damage in the first post. Got the panel where i want it and will probably start to tack it into place with adjusting here in the next couple of weeks. Starting to look better already.
To hell with pulling and mudding it, stick to your guns. I just replaced the DS quarter on my new to me WS6 because I am not interested in having bondo on my car, plus I was painting it anyway. I much rather go through the work of changing a quarter than having a pulled and repaired panel. Granted, you can fix it that way, but I hate bondo.
