DAMN!! Dented in a parking lot
Noticed I had a big dent on the passenger side front fender. On the top side just off where the fender seperates from the hood. Looks like it hit where the bra is so no paint chips or scratches, just a big indententaion. Almost like somone kneeled on it, but that surface there is pretty firm. Not sure how a car/truck did it.
Gonna try to call some paintless dent people.
Any body shop guys here????

sorry to hear that todd.. Everyone always makes fun of me for parking my car way out in my work parking lot to keep people away from it... So one day my girlfriend and I were in a parking lot, i pulled in away from all the cars of course.. Then this older couple go to get in there car, the old lady opens her car door and WHACK hits the truck next to her... AND leaves the door just resting there against the truck! And i said, "that's why i walk the extra distance!!!

I know how it feels. In the open parking at college, some shmuck just touched the rear of my car JUST over the rear tail lights.
The question is, it was a PERFECT 1" diameter circle, wondering how it happened.
It's a shame that people just ding your car, and drive away without giving a crap

By the way, here in Dubai, we got these mobile body guys that fix dents without the need of painting.
They insert their LONG tools between the glass and body and 'pop' it back out. Takes a couple of minutes. Do you guys have that sort of service?

yea, I will call them. I am not sure how they could get in there to pop it out though as you can't get under the fender from the engine compartment. I guess pull the front wheel and from under thier?

Well at least it didn't crack the paint. I had a index finger size dent above the drivers rear tail lights and it cracked the paint. Cost me 1k to get it fixed

hosrom, i saw one of those guys in action at the Hershey Park Meet. He was pulling a dent i think on a 944's door. Incredible work i must say, my ex-gf (just friend now) were really impressed at how quickly he did it also.
