you might be lucky and be able to knock that out from behind. Personally I would consult a "smart repairer", they're trained in paintless dent removal so they might be able to get that looking straight without removing the paint and needing a respray.

As said above, I definitely think you could get that pulled out by a specialist

might just be a photo angle but the wheel looks a little out of sink ???

[998ccMike]

The tyre is currently flat, and the plastic wheel arch has been smashed, so I think it just looks a bit odd, I did notice the window has been forced out under the impact and will not close now,along with the panel gap where thee door meets the quarter panel.

Is the tyre flat because of the impact?

[Ben_O]

That is too crumpled for a smart repair plus the window sill is damaged too.

 

That will need more attention i'm afraid.

I agree with Ben, you might make it look a bit better by trying to knock it out but you'd never get it perfect.

 

The bottom of the window should pull down when you push the dent out though.

I would be checking that rear wheel too, the tyre might be flat and the wheel arch missing , but the wheel looks too far forward in the wheel arch....
