iPad back frame bent, cant find instructions for back replacement

I just started up a repair website and a customer let his kids play with his ipad. They dropped it and the back panel is bent and the rubber seal is poking out of one corner. I did not find any guides for this so i became wary. What is the difficulty of this repair? I usually only offer screen replacement but he is willing to risk the possible damages for me to fix it. Any advise?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Why don't you take a look at the teardown? I think this is just about as complete as possible to get you to your goal. Good Luck

I replaced my rear cover with a new one from E-bay. I wrote a story about it here:

The guides on this site are great, and I used several of them to complete my repair.
