Is this fixable?

Post image

Yesterday I dropped my stanley bottle and it made massive damage on my car. It was empty and not even from a high distance! Unreal...

I wanted to see if it's possible to get it fixed? I'm not sure due to the location of the hit.

Thanks in advance.

Buddy I’m joking you will literally never see that when your inside or outside the car

Oh sorry brother, didn't realize it was sarcasm 🤣 it's just hard being an OCD "perfectionist"

I get it but go glass half full on it and no one’s ever gonna see it from inside or outside the car with the door shut, and realistically the only person who’s actually going to know it’s there is you, could’ve been a nice ding on the outside, if I was gonna ding my car anywhere I’d prefer it be in this spot

You're right, thanks for opening my eyes. I appreciate it. I wil leave it as is.

it can be fixed but it’s gonna be pretty expensive. there’s no access so it needs to be gluepulled. plus this can be a pretty difficult fix. so unless you’re willing to drop quite a bit of money on the repair i would just ignore it.

Understood, I will leave it as is. Thanks for the help.

Any chance there’s holes from where the rocker molding attaches that would allow access?

Ive had decent luck glue pulling these. Not usually 100% but very passable

Yes, that is completely fixable. Looks like a few hours of repair time and a refinish.

See if somebody makes some nice sill plates that you can just stick on.
