Vent: That 2006 Civic quarter panel repair from last week almost broke me.

Got a 2006 Civic in the shop with a smashed quarter panel... looked like a simple pull and fill job. Started pulling it out and the whole inner structure just crumbled like a soda can. Spent 8 hours just trying to get a solid base for the new metal. The owner kept calling every hour asking if it was done yet... I finally had to tell him it needed a full quarter panel replacement, which added $1200 to his bill. Has anyone else had a car just fall apart on them mid-repair like that?

The whole thing crumbled? That's insane.

Ugh, that's the worst! It feels like everything these days is built to look okay until you actually need it to hold up.
