    Very hard apparently.

    I was told by a body shop that they couldn't bang a dent out at all... they'd have to cut out the rocker panel and put a new one in.

    Definitely front ones. That's what I did. 90% of what you hear is from the front anyway. I suggest getting the front ones now, and you can get rear ones later if you decide. Also, as previously mentioned, you can spend that left over money on an amp (they sound MUCH better with a small amp pushing them), or sound deadening.

    that can be pulled out...granted you have to repaint the rocker but you could always just buy a gallon of say black enamel and paint your rockers on both sides to match to do it cheap or fix it and prime with some epoxy primer and then spray over it with bedliner etc...


    also you can drill a hole and use screws and a slide hammer but you will need to weld the holes you drill closed so the repair doesnt absorb water from the inside of the panel

    i never thought about just drilling holes. hell it's already scratched to bare metal, rewelding wouldn't be an issue.
