Yesterday nite, i paid the guy $20 for VIP parking instead of parkin blocks away or side street. Next thing, i got home and found a super big dent on my driver side. I didnt see it during the time i got my car becus the person opened the door for me. Does anyone know any shop can remove this dent near 626 area or can take me . Or has anyone tried doin it themself? (if so, what did you do?) thanks.

 

i know it sounds stupid but try a plunger i have done if b4....

or u might be able to pake out the panneling and bang it out urslef use a rubber hammer and wrap a towl around it and bang evenly throughout the dent dont let it sit long or it wil crack and such the sooner its done the better off u are

 

Paintless dent removal.

Just as long as it is not on a body crease, you can have it done by a paintless dent removal specialist. It work good too .

 

try taking off the inner panel (2 screws) and push it out.

 

That's straight up dirty. I ope you are able to fix that without having to pay

 

I would let them know what happened but I got hit and run not too long ago and it caused over $1000 in damage. The plunger didnt work and it was generally the same shape and size. Take it to a shop, theyll do it best. Thats just dirty though.

 

One mechanic quoted to get this fix for $350. Yikes, i didnt know it cost that much just to have it fix, not painted. But i guess the dent is big...does that price sounds right?

Also, people said a car couldnt hit it...either someone kicked or punch it. There was a fight that night and unless that fight continued outside afterwards. Funny thing, when the worker opened the door for me, i asked her to wait so I can give her tip but she didnt wait; she closed the door and left....

 

Dang that was straight up dirty. I hate valets. Hopefully their management will be sympathetic and don't give you that "you park at your risk" BS. You should contact them ASAP, so maybe you can get some money for it.

 

damn, sucks man, looks like it is creased in a bit. Damn, that blows

 

yea, my g/f's TC got the same problem but smaller...so its harder to push out...havn't done it b/c she didn't let me...haha

 

it's in the body line, but i would try PDR. leave it to the pros to try, otherwise you risk screwing it up and increasing the repair costs.

 

I know a guy that is great. let me get his number for you. He's done many high class cars and my rsx as well. he's super **** so if it don't look right he won't charge you.

 

hey post a picture of before and after. and where you went

 

try http://www.denttime.com , they might go to your area. I have heard good reports of them from San Diego people.

that's messed up

 

Looks like the stupid valet opened the door and hit a pole

 

VMS Autobody has PDR guys. They are located in Covina, CA 626-915-8115

 

hii. I did try using the plunger and it pop out the big dent. I was HAPPY that i did not lose the body line that goes across the car but there were still dents...so i took it to PDR guy.

Here are my results!

BEFORE:



When i washed my car..i found 4 more dents on the back rear side (near the tire)

AFTER:

Now, there isnt anymore dents....like it never happen .
The guy charged me $50 for any dents on the whole car and mine was just the whole left side. It took almost 2 hours to get it fix. He works for Car-max: Ivan Morales 626.533.5090 ...of course if you take it to car-max they'll charge higher but becus he works on the side, he charges a lot lower.

Oh, my car is exactly 3 years and i told people that i only have one tiny dent on the back...yikes i think i jinx it or i should hav "knock on wood"
