I dropped a board on my month-old paint job that I did myself. Much swearing ensued.
I have some paint left over, so I can paint the whole rear trunk lid. But I need to fix the bent corner and the dent in the middle. 1. Is the corner dent easily fixable by just bending it back? What's the best way to do this? 2. The dent in the middle is right over one of the cross members on the other side. I thought I could drill a hole in it, then tap out the dent. Thoughts? Thanks! |

I second the replacement trunk lid idea. If you can find one that is not loaded with bonds and rust you would be ahead fete game especially since your paint job is so fresh and you have left over paint. Don't beat yourself up over the dent, stuff happens. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
