| It might be cheaper to get the rear quarter replaced if it's that bad, just drill out the existing tig welds, pull the panel, and mig the new one in place... | |

| I should really post up a pic so you can see. What it really needs (an excuse my poor explanation) is one of those stick weld jobbies where they weld a stick to the bodywork in several places and then pull the dent out. Ive not seen a quarter panel for a mk3 polo for a long time (the last one being on ebay) and i dont wanna be paying over the odds for one from some VW dealer parts bin. | |
