    I backed into someone and didn't get my car fixed by insurance (high deductible).

    All i did was unscrew the bumper from inside the trunk and the screw in the wheel well. Then I heated the dent with a hairdryer and popped it out from the other side! Super easy. Doesnt look perfect, but heck of a lot better than a few hundred bucks.

    Oh, and youll notice in my pics that I have a TURBO decal on my car... haha TURBO PRIUS. People love it. Both my brother and I have priuses, so we both got the decal; its hilarious.

    Looks great and the sticker is a great head scratcher.

    Thanks! It's not perfect but you wouldnt necesarily notice unless you were looking for it, which is good.
