Sill Dent

It appears that the passenger side sill has a slight dent in it about a foot behind the front wheel. How easy is this to fix?

Sill dents vary, some pop out and others won't budge. A body shop should be able to weld a small hook onto the middle of the dent and pull it but if it doesn't pop out then the only other solution would be a sill section which can be costly.

150 notes for me... required cutting and chopping and re-welding a plate over it and then re-applying "stone chip texture on-top" a month or 2 ago it happened with mine when my trolley jack decided to take a bit out of my passenger's sill :/

Ive had a sill dent before on a previous car, was a new car it happened in transit. They had a dent man come out and it took him 2 mins, really straight forward and I suppose it depends where it is.

Welding does seem like a good idea. There doesn't seem to be any paint damage so I might wait for a while then decide.
