TSX got nailed by a paintball....paintless dent removal in MD or VA?

So I was driving my sister home late last night when I heard a loud bang. I knew exactly what it was, pulled over, and called the cops. I don't think anyone was caught but now I am left with a dent on my rear passenger side door. Does anyone know if paintless dent removal will completely eliminate the dent? Also, does anyone know of a place in MD or VA that they can recommend? Thanks in advance.

As long as dent is not creased not paint cracked it can be repaired by PDR and look like new. Expect $75-$100 for repair. Most are come-to-you. Check your yellow pages or use Yahoo search.

I had hail damage removed by the PDR guy and he did an excellent job. As long as the paint didn't crack you'll be fine. Typically its $75-$100 per panel, just like the man above said!

^^yeah, there are no chips or scratches in the paint. I am just hoping it can be returned to normal with no signs that there was ever a ding there.

I'd almost consider you lucky. This happened to me back in July but it was a bb gun. Still have to get around to getting the bodywork on that one...

This method is only effective for bigger dents and probably wont work on little dings and dents who knows may work.
