I was driving and hit the curb, now the middle of the OEM skirt is cracked and dented. Any suggestions on what to do? Will it be costly to get it fixed? I was thinking about just slapping on like a cheap skirt to cover it up, but I can't find one for the 2014 model. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thank you!

Same thing happened to mine a year ago, never even heard it happening and it dented my whole right hand side skirt in. I don't think you can get in there so the panelbeater guy would probably have to weld and pull it out, I'm not sure on the specifics. I haven't fixed it yet, but it's an eyesore I know :(

Similar damage on the front side of my car cost around $300 to fix but it included repairing the front bumper and left hand fender and respraying them both, fitment and replacement of a bracket! So it might be less to fix the skirt I hope. **

I actually got it fixed at a local auto-body shop in the states. Only costed me 300 bucks with it repainted and cleared. Apparently, the shop used a hydraulic dent puller. Dropped it off in the morning and practically got it back the next day. Should definitely ask around instead of having it cut out and welded back in.
