I feel sick

This a.m. I wasn't paying attention when leaving my parking space and I rubbed up against the gate. Is this something I can get out or do I need to take it in? I know someone who has the dent remover that pops dents out but I don't know how great that will work.

oh man... sorry to see you did that. You're definitely gonna have to take that in if you want it professionally restored. Mistakes do happen don't beat yourself up too hard.

That's gonna require some real metal work, find a professional you really trust and be ready to open your wallet. Sorry for you, I had something similar happen though not to that extent

That's going to require a new quarter panel and paint. Sorry to see this happened. We all make mistakes and it will be as good as new.

Crap happens. I curbed my front right wheel at a drive thru and felt like crap after.

Yeah, that's not gonna buff out. Gonna need to see the man about this one. Don't beat yourself up over it. Back in the day , I took out the side of my Dad's town car backing out of the driveway. Couldn't figure out why the ass end of my 68 Camaro was going up in the air.
Rushing, not paying attention, shit happens.

That looks like you more then rubbed against something. When you first heard the initial crunch ...did you stop? No you didn't. ..why would you keep going ? Is there more to this story? I feel bad for you because that's some major damage.
