Shopping cart damage

Drilling holes to pull the dent? Can't the wheel well plastic liner be removed by taking off the plastic clips? Take a look before anyone drills into anything. Many dent

Drilling holes to pull the dent? Can't the wheel well plastic liner be removed by taking off the plastic clips? Take a look before anyone drills into anything. Many dent guys can use suction cups to pull the dent too.

I agree with Spearfish25. A quality body shop should be able to repair that dent WITHOUT drilling holes in the fender well. Drilling a hole is unnecessary.

That's a good point. I'll ask the Nissan techs if this is doable. Thanks for the advice.
