2.5rs side (rocker panel below door) damage - How to fix?
2.5rs Side Damage - How to fix?
When I bought my car from the dealership used... it had some damage on what I believed to be the side skirt.
I figured I could just buy a new side skirt being a noob at the time with subaru.
I soon realized that it was not a side skirt, but actually the rocker panel of the car.
I was wondering if anyone knows an easy way to fix it. I was going to try to pop it out... but its a pretty big dent.
My other idea was to buy a wrx sideskirt and place it over the damage.
What do you guys think?
I would imagine a shop would charge alot to fix this.

Side skirts would probably be cheaper, but may not fit due to the area of the damage.
I'd see if you can get some used skirts and dry fit them. If they fit up with no major problems, I'd go that route.
If not, look for some quotes and see how much it will run to fix.
