how much would it be ball park for a foot sized dent in trunk to be removed "would need to be repainted and the metal shrunk" and get all of the holes filled includding wing holes

i am hoping to get a deal cause my friends dad owns a line of repair shops but. his dad can be a dick. lets just say i hate people that are jealous enough of my car and hard work on it that they would hit it with a cro-bar

What size foot? How bad is the damage?
You would be amazed at what paintless dent removal can do for 150ish. Pictures would help us help you.

Buy a CF trunk.Thats a great idea...If you dont mind things that dont fit Quite right. If you lived close to me, I would fix it and paint it for you....

i was cona get a cf trunk but i want it painted so my car doesnt scream steal me or mess with me. so i figured id spend 500 to see what i want instead of spending that on just the trunk. cause im not going for major weight loss and cf+my subs...id imagine they wouldnt mix well

No one gets them for weight loss but if your going to paint it don't bother.

No one gets them for weight loss but if your going to paint it don't bother.Especially considering the stock trunk is a feather weight as it is....I bet the stock trunk doesnt weigh more than 12-15lbs. and I hae no clue what a CF weighs..Maybe 2-4 lbs. lighter...Definately not money well spent in the weight savings dept.

yea does anybody know of a good shop in minnesota. cause my friend got damage fixed on his eclipse and there was orange peeling and over spray. they even used the wrong paint color so they tried to fade it into the stock one. is this something i can look forward to happening?
