That's what happens when you pull on that quarter panel too much. It gives a bit here, but a takes a bit from there.

this is probably in the wrong section.

the hair dryer trick won't work because the dent was caused by the lip being pulled out to far and the dented area sucks in.

Maybe a good paintless dent repair guy could fix it but it has to be pulled back out for sure. you cant really get behind it either.

If you remove the tail lights, you can gain good access to try and pop the dent out. Also heard that on the driver side, you can pop it out by inserting the gas filler and cranking on it a bit.

Good luck.
