Definately could have been worse.
Though I don't think that dent can be popped out so easily. looks like the metal has a crease or two.

Thanks. IJ and thanks everyone else too:) im happy shes ok but im sad because i spent soooo much damn time on this forum and fixing my car to just have to turn around ad do it again:( lol i know its just a fender but damn i feel like i fix something and BOOM something else goes. but for an 800$ car i cant complain. it ran and its 5 speed and its turbo and not a single dent in the body besides the damn deer.

I come from a land down under
Cars can be repaired/replaced, people not so much

just keep in mind "it's just a car" ;)

People have the wrong idea when they say the Mk3 is a tank, it has a LOT of mass so it will do a lot of damage when it hits anything but there is nothing inherently "Strong" about them and they're no safer in a high speed accident than any other car (read as go fast hit something solid and die)

The "Mass" can work against you in a panic situation as well as the car will want to continue in the exact direction it was headed and can be a bitch to catch even when expected.
