Mine goes into the shop (Dr. Dent) on Wednesday. For $50 and 45 minutes later, two medium sized dings removed.

I just found I had a door ding on my front fender and a smaller ding on the back. I now got to make time and a little extra money to get it fix.

I must be the cheapest MOFO on this site then I have 8 dings on my passenger door, 5 on my driver's door, and 1 on the quarter panel behind the driver's door(under the rear side window).

I'm too lazy and I don't wanna shell out the coin to fix something that's going to be a recurring problem.


hahaha...I've spent about $6,000 CAD (almost $4000 USD) in mods, but I won't spend a few bucks to take out the dings...hahaha, er, sad eh?

Because now that it is so easy and relatively inexpensive to get it back to looking new, I find myself visiting Dr. Dent twice a year and getting a little careless in parking.
