Dented rear passenger quarter panel

Any ideas on how I can fix this?

I'd post a picture but I can't figure out how to with the iPhone app

It really depends on how extensive the damage is. Look for companies that do paint free dent removal. Usually they can pull out dents in a couple hours and it is inexpensive.

There's a crease running the length of the dent

Kill the car with fire. Seriously though its a bitch, you can pull the back seats and everything beat it out close to original, then have fun with a **** load of bondo. Pull the front and back wind shields, remove the door and trunk, and repaint.

I've actually had a lot of luck with this little feller

Amazon.com: Bondo 954 Suction Cup Dent Puller: Automotive Amazon.com: Bondo 954 Suction Cup Dent Puller: Automotive

It won't be "perfect", but it's cheap and works surprisingly well.

Yeah the rear quarter panel literally is 2/3s of the car, instead of a 1/4 like the name would imply. My previous cobalt got hit there dented pretty bad, GM book says 18hrs to just remove the panel
