So I had a dent on the passenger fender for a while and I finally have the means to fix it, but my friends think I can pop it out, just need to seek other opinions, because originally I was just going to replace with a new one, but I don't want to spend on a new fender just to be told i didn't need to. Just let me know what's possible.

Replace. Look like it would need repainted anyway, so probably cheaper than trying to fix it.

It would be at least $200 for PDR and then there's the paint. If you can get a new fender installed and paint matched for $200 that's an absolute steal. Are you sure about that pricing?

A pdr would be 500+ just to pretty it up. Last time I looked a fender was around 80$, guess 150$ for paint, maybe another 150$ install? No idea what's involved for removing and reinstall.

The 200$ might be deductible?
