So some moron decided to put a nice dent or ding in my rear quarter panel on my FD and i wondered if there is any access to the inner side to press it out? From what i saw there wasnt any obvious place after taking off all the interior panels on the trunk. Any advice would be gratly appreciated.

I thought about pulling the rear wheel, and cutting a flap to gain acces through the wheel well and then welding it back up but wanted to know if there was an easier way.

the cars currently wrapped so it makes it hard to use any kind of pulling from the outside surface. I already tried one of those cheesy "pops a dent" things as seen on TV as well as a bondo suction cup.

No, but paintless dent removal (glue/suction-cups) will have a pretty good chance with that I think.

I had similar dent but on the passengers side. I was thinking the same way... Can the dent be pushed out from the inside? After i removed the interior panel and the seat belt reel i found a small cavity where i could touch the inside of the quarter panel but wasn't enough room to work with. I know nothing about bodywork so i called a local mobile body guys who is pretty reputable. As you can see in the pictures he did pretty dam good.
What the body guy did was drill a small hole in the door jam that he would later seal with a rubber plug that looks factory to the untrained eye. He was able to massage the dent out through this hole with some special bar & he used a light board to see the reflection of the dent, torch and rubber mallet

A good dent guy can fix that no problem.

Get the dent guy to take all the other little dings out while he is at, well worth it. Have some friends come over and have theirs done as well. All this will help defray the initial call-out/set-up fee.

I think thats what im going to do, i did manage to find that access point behind the seatbelt reel but as stated earlier there is just not enough room to work/get enough leverage to push it out.

If your located in the north bay? i can give you the mobile service i used for my fd. He offers multi-dent discount & free estimate. Was pricey but it's done and over with good results
