The rear end of the car is now sporting two holes in the underbody after an accident I had a few weeks back where the car rolled of the jack and the floor pan struck the two toppled axle stands.
The pictures below give you some idea of the damage although they don't show the concaved areas surrounding the puncture holes.
I'd like to ask what are my options for getting this repair done to a professional standard?
If I take it to a body shop would they remove the stonegard from the surrounding areas then attempt to pull out the dents, weld it, then resurface the exposed area?
Or would they cut out a square for each area and weld in replacement metal? My only concern with this method is what lies directly above the affected areas.
Anyone had work like this done before? I've yet to visit any body shops to get a quote or ask how they would do it.
Thanks for any tips or experiences you may have.
