Do you guys know someone/shops that can do a decent job to repair this? Would paintless dent removal work in this case? The scratch on the dent pretty much removed the base coat down to the primer or bare metal even I think.
I am still debating whether I should get it fixed or not depending on the cost... What do you guys think?
Sigh I will see this dent EVERY time I get into the car.

By the way, would stuff like this covered in car insurance?

Thanks guys
Shit like that is the exact reason why I don't go to the city anymore. I'm sure if you take it to a body shop,especially one in the city,they are probably going to rape you. I pretty sure you can go through your insurance,but you have to ask yourself if it's worth the increase to your premium.

I'm not too sure that there is a simple solution to this. A quick fix is to cover the raw metal with some clear nail polish and/or get a touch up pen from the dealer,just to prevent it from rusting.
