Door Dings

Within days of each other I got two medium sized door dings on opposite side of the car on each door right below the handle. I was wondering, is there any affordable way to get them fixed. Little blemishes like that get on my nerves a lot. Thanks.

Dealerships usually have someone come through there lots once a week. If you see one of these dent guys in the lot stop in and talk to them. I had 4 dents removed on my truck for $20 cash and he did it in about 20 minutes. Its called paintless dent removal. They use tools to get behind the door and massage the dent out.

You could also take your car to your local body shop / dent shop to get this same process done but most of them around here charge $85 per dent.

I would not recommend getting the dents filled in and repainted like some body shops do unless they are huge dents that cannot be paintlessly removed or they are in wierd areas on your car that the dent guy cant to.
