My girl's 1994 SC 300 was backed into by some unknown driver this past weekend. Damage was done to the passenger side tail light, bumper and 1/4 panel.

I've come across some classified threads for the light and bumper but have a bad feeling in my stomach that says that the 1/4 panel is part of the body frame which will require a body shop to fix it.

Confirm?

I hate hit and runners...

 

It can be fixed or replaced by a bodyshop. Not the average DIY project for 'normal' folks tho.

 

ya, the exact same thing happened to me, they paint looks awful. They defiantly did a bad job because it has that orange peel look, luckily some day im going to get it painted back.

 

My dad backed into my quarter panel, sounds the same as yours except you have tail-light and bumper damage. Mine was $2200 to have the thing cut out and replaced the "right way" $1500 to bondo it up and make it "almost perfect". Those are from insurance type body shops, I have a few local guys that can probably do it for less, but its definately not a DIY

 

most quater panel dents will need it to be cut and welded. but if your's isnt that bad, they might be able to pull it and bondo.

two words: BLISTER KIT, haha
