  • Semi-Large Dent

    I was going into a gas station when I turned up the incline and my sideskirt hit... Now i have about a 6in dent towards the back end of my right fender skirt. Is there a way to get it out without going to a repair shop? I have heard of dry ice working on small dents, but will it work on this?

      I think I know where you are talking about and what you mean. I did the same thing once in my car. It didn't have gfx. It was the area where the side skirts WOULD go. I turned to sharply trying to park my car real close to the curb at college and I ended up goin UP on the curb. When I back up, there was a very sharp dent about 11 inches on the passenger side, bottom skirt. It was located directly where the bottom of the front fender meets the door/bottom skirt. I never fixed it. If I had kept the car, I was gonna plan on just getting gfx to cover it up after taking it to the body to have them installed.

          I am a member of a dented side skirt club too, I turned to sharply out of a gas station and fell down right on the side skirt. I wanted to do the ground effects method, but never got the money.

          I think I read somewhere here, that you can take it off and just pop it back.

          Luckily for me, even though it is huge, It is barely visiable unless you bend down and look for it.
