MAJOR F**K UP 2DAY....(with pics)

[northeast_gti-t]

thats unlucky mate  same happened to me before xmas except mine moved towards me at the other side of the car before it wedged into the sill    made me move very quickly and after that i went out and got a trolley jack and now have axle stands to  i learnt the hard way  tbh i dont even jack the car up with it when i'm at home i use a trolley jack although mines not as bad as yours i touched mine in with some spare paint i have for a temporary measure but having read the post i see its been mentioned about R32 skirts  that was the thought i had at the weekend  as it will cover the sill damage and the money it would cost to repair my sill i can put toward pait/skirts so could work out ok hope you get sorted mate

Gutted for ya. but its just one of them things mate, i've seen a tractor fall off when the jack gave way, that did some damage to the fitter working on it 
You'd still need to use the w/m if you've lowered ya car. My trolly jack wont go under till its been jacked up a bit.
Best of luck on the bodywork mate.
