Its actually very hard to see in your pictures.
Now I can't unsee it, it's killing me.

I'm gonna at least pull the doorpanel and massage it a little bit before paying $80. I'll try anything once

Pulling the door panel wouldnt help much. Our doors have a huge support beam running accross almost the same height as the door handles, I believe. The PDR guy that I went to had to drill a hole on the side just to get access behind there.

@DKPJester I think was the one that suggested the PDR guy I went to.

If you really want to do it good luck to you. I just dont see fixing it yourself is worth it unless you really really know what you're doing.

Its like people buying expensive smart phones but dont want to pay for a 1 dollar app and go to lengths to even just pirating the app.

Hey man not all of us want to pay for tetris lol but I do agree body work on these cars is a pain and that 3 drops of paint subaru used to paint these cars will spider and crack very easily because of how thin it is. One mistake popping out a dent on this car could lead to you having to repaint a panel.

No I'm still at the building closer to Beck. I usually park in the north end of the building. I was only on the east end a few times to get my glass checked out after a rock hit it.

Why don't I see YOUR car out near Johnson Electric anymore? LOL. I swear I used to see it everyday but I haven't for the past few weeks.
