apartment complex mayhem
so i go out this morning, to find the little back hatche peice that says rx7, which is held on the back window with two bolts, has fallen off, on top of that, i now have a dent on the roof on the driver side somehow which was not there when i parked my car last night, it looks about fist size.. and, the driver side rear blinker light cover has been also stolen,, someone just had a little too much doing minor **** to my car..
anyways i need to find another one of the hatch peices so my rear window will stay shut, and i need a blinker light cover or whatever you wish to call it,
any ideas how to get this dent out? its got a crease...

those parts you can get at a junk yard.. as for the dent... if its creased, it will be tough to get out.. look in your local phone book. there is a place by me called "dent-oligy" or some thing like that. they specialize in removing dents from cars with out taking off the paint. im sure there is a similar company by you.

You can get the screws for that hatch piece at Home Depot or Ace hardware. I just got some the other day. I believe they are 6mm by 10mm long.
Be brave: do your own body work. I love it. get a slide hammer to pull the dent (you can also try the "Ding King"), and some 2 part Bondo. And a 1/4 sheet palm sander (on sale at $25 usually) and some 400,600 and 800 paper. Pull the dent, fill it, sand it down, prime it, sand some more, and shoot with a spray can from the auto store.
I did that with the banged up red83 I got free, and now it's gorgeous!
