There is a special vice grip that grabs onto 5 or 6 studs at a time so you can pull a large area at one time. Very cool (although the vice grip will cost you about 50 ish bucks), but yeah thats how I would fix that dent at work (bodyshop). The vice grip has hoops to grab onto it with a slide hammer with the hook attachment. worth the money the first time you use it, because it will save you that much time.

agreed with the guys above yes a stud puller will work to a point but can give it a uneven look...try to find a tool to pull over the whole dent or the majority of it and apply a THIN layer of bondo to even it out! and sand smooth. Also try and see if you can push it out from the inside(itl come out smoother than if you just pull from the outside) but youl prolly have to do both thats pretty big!
good luck

use a stud welder and puller and work that baby out and in stead of useing the glaze you can use some panelbond becuase 90% chance youll get pin holes with the stud welder and this has better corrision inhibitors than glaze

Wow. The car I bought had the same quarter f'd up and it almost looked exactly like this! Pulled the dent out with a stud welder. But just to pull the iner fender out half straight to make it easier for the new quarter to pop on. Mine was a hair bit worse than yours as it had more creases. A chimney fell on it. I think you could get yours pretty close with a stud welder and some wave wire. Check out eastwood.
