my rear tail light caves in at the bottom and it is because there is a minor dent in the panel around the corner of it. its hardly noticeable but it bugs me!ha A friend of mine who works at a body shop said it was an easy fix just get some type of tool but i cant remember..some type of hammer..any advice? help?

another thing is that my dash and other panels are painted a light grey by the previous owner but i want it black..my body shop buddy said I need a paint gun to paint it because duplicolor spray black would look like crap..but on their website their project car looks clean..

HELP PLEASE!!!

From the picture, I can't see where the tail light is caving in. But if it's just a slight annoyance, I would leave it alone. Once you start hammering on the panel, even from the inside of the trunk, you're taking a big chance of cracking your paint and buckling the metal.
For the dash, go to an auto parts store and get a spray can of interior dye. Restoration supply companies sell it as well. It's made for dying/painting interior pieces and works great. You'll want to scuff the surface of your dash first, and clean it with a pre-paint prep solvent. Just don't gob the dye on real heavy so you can retain the graining of the panels. Two thin coats is better than one heavy one.

 

Thanks a lot!

 

I have used some of the dye that Camaro 69 is talking about. I bought it at a place that sells auto paint supplies and it was pricey but worked really well. I dyed a blue Nissan pickup dash burgandy. Once I put it in the truck, it matched perfectly with the rest of the interior.

 

nice! do u remember how much it was? is it like a spray type deal or something else?
