First Dent. ._.

Well, I was cleaning my car to ready it for a car show, and found this dent in my quarter panel. In addition to the big dent, there's a smaller dent closer to the door and there was a scratch that continued down pretty much the length of the door, although it buffed out enough to not be noticed unless your eyeball is .3 inches from the door.

Basically, how should I go about removing this dent? Am I going to have to drop some serious money to get it fixed..?






And, it fucking pisses me off knowing that people could leave dents like this and not say anything. It looks like someone took a shopping cart between two cars and just railed into mine.

A PDR guy will make that disappear with a very minimal fee. Don't worry too much about it, that's pretty mild.

You should park your car further away from everyone else. I learned the hard way when someone sideswiped my GT4 and left no note or anything.

Yeah i had a dent doctor take this out for $25. But its at the body shop now since the paint was cracked anyways. There goes $250 for something smaller than a quarter. This was definetly a door ding and people just leave. I park no where near anyone!
