Such repairs are usually performed using welding equipment and must be carried out in a car service workshop.
In case of extensive damage, the first thing to check is whether there has been any displacement or deformation of the body panels, which could affect the handling of the vehicle or lead to accelerated wear of any of its working components (for example, tires).
Due to the fact that most of the body elements (hood, fenders, etc.) are presented in separate sections, their restoration in case of serious damage does not seem expedient. More often, it is much more reasonable and economical to find a suitable replacement component, which can be found not only in car accessory stores, but also at dismantlers or dumps, which sometimes allows you to significantly reduce costs.
