I’d go with a PDR specialist. I will cost a few hundred $ and paint will need to be restored but the panel should come back to original shape.

Nope , not at all, impossible…happy to be of help

And also…let’s stop this trend of people who are happy wanting to learn car enthusiasts asking about repairs for themselves or a body shop when

CALL YOUR FUCKING INSURANCE!!!

These days of fix it yourself don’t exist unless you have an older car and don’t own money. Wake up count chocolatela, it’s a new day

You’re going have to replace the whole panel if you don’t want it to look like that

You can buy a new used tailgate for around 350-500$

For a body shop yes, for you, no.

No

Depends on your tolerance for jank.

If you want it perfect it’s at minimum a dent pull and panel spray.

If it’s an older car (I can’t tell) and you aren’t too fussed but just don’t want it to rot then it could be pulled and the chipped paint simply sealed with a touch up and clear coat blend, sanded and machine polished.

But it’s never going to A1 that second way.

Could as a PDR person and touch up the cracks if your low on cash. But it’ll be tough for pdr with the crease

Mazda/Volvo body tech here that a replace all day

Fixable, yes. Easy to repair, no

Hot water and a plunger

Go to a junkyard, look for the same car and replace the whole door. Shouldn’t be too hard, especially given Mazda’s don’t change that much every year so you could probably look for a range or model years that could have the same part

Paintless debt repair could be an option but obviously you’ll need to touch up that one spot if they can fix it.

Take the boot lining out, grab a metal working hammer, and hit it from the inside, won’t fully fix it, but will make it look a bit better

Yep, buy a new one!
