Default Xmas Dent!

Gotta love that Xmas spirit. Walked outside on the 24th and found this lovely present waiting for me.







How you hit that part of the car in the lot I have no idea but there is no way that they didn't know it happened. Yet no note.... Imagine that! That is not a open the car door type of tap. Paint looks ok, no chips or scratches.

I need to find a good body shop around here, anybody have an idea of what kind of cost I'm looking at? Should it come out easy?

Thanks!

Don't know where "here" is.

Check with someone who does "dentless" repair work. I got mine within two weeks of getting my Crossfire. Done quickly and now good as new. Cost was $65.

It looks like it was just pushed in with no paint damage. Should come out easy.

I wouldn't be surprized if dent wizard could get that dent out. It looks like someone leanened or sat their fat asz against the fender.

Sorry to see that. My daughter got a door ding last week. We think it was the neighbors car door oppening into hers, Unfortunately they left over the holidays.

Also I recall something on the forum where someone used freon and heat to pop out a simular type of dent.

Check out the link in this post:

This looks like it might work on your dent.
Give it a try and let us know if it works.

Dent Worx here (TN.) could take that right out and you would never be able to see where it was , I have seen them fix bigger than that with with no problems if the paint is not cracked ,,,,,, find a good paintless dent shop they should be able to take care of that ,,,,,,,,Good luck
