Rear wheel arch area access from inside

Post by toomyxp »

Hello all!

Unfortunately, I received a door ding a bit above the right side rear wheel arch. It's a minor dent that otherwise would be a good candidate for glue pull dent removal, but my car has a non-factory finish so I don't want to risk pulling the paint off during the process.

If possible, I would like to have it pushed out from the inside but I'm not sure whether this area is accessible from the boot or the tail light socket. Drilling would be last resort, this is why I would like to ask for your help. Any information would be useful!
Thank you in advance!

I have a ding on the other side of the fuel cap from you. A previous owner hit a railing going up a multi story. I would also be interested to know if you can get behind the panel from the wheel arch etc to push the dent out.

Can you not just remove the wheel arch liner and access it from there
