Door Panel Removal?

Does anyone if there is a DIY for removing the interior door panel? I went out last night for my Uncle's 50th B-day party and some asshole decided to dent my car. I have one that is about an 1 1/2 long. The other is just a dot. I was able to get the scuffs out so hopefully I will not ahve to paint anything. That is the 1st dent in the car and I have had it for over 4 years. I am pissed.

Juice-

Find a paintless dent removal company in your area- the moldings might cover it, but you would be amazed at how well "Dentworks", "Dent Wizard", or similar companies can remove door dings. I would guess $75 to $125 to get it done. I have had it done on almost every one of my family vehicles for the last 6 years.

Most of them also have mobile service. If the paint is OK, it should look very close to new.

Good luck, and I know how it feels! I got a scratch at a Wal-mart recently, and had to spend two hours buffing and touching up.

PS the molding is designed for mounting at or below the body crease; if your dent is above that, the molding would be odd-looking, I think.
