With my Monte Carlo, My mother originally bought it in 1999 for $22,000. Two weeks after she bought it, she parked it in the community college parking lot, where she was taking classes. She came out from her classes to discover a HUGE 6 foot long dent from the front of the driver's side door to the quarter panel just before the rear wheel well. She was livid, but dealt with it. The car stayed like that until about 2005 hen my older brother decided he'd try pulling out the dents. The end result: crappy bondo, somewhat less noticeable dent, missing "MONTE CARLO" lettering and what looks like bullet holes where he welded on those metal bar things to pull it out.
End Result:
