I have a dent in the side of my car. Its got a hole from point of inpact and then a scrap dent. Would i be able to fix this by using body putty or something similar?

If not, how would i go about fixing it?

Thanks

Ok thank you. Is this type of work expensive or does it just depend on the extent of the damge and if panels etc need to be replaced??
