Last night it was snowing and the person driving in front of me hit a person pulling out of a gas station who appeared to look anywhere but straight ahead. To avoid wrecking my front end I swerved and ended up losing control due to the fresh sheet of snow. I did a 180 and hit a bus sign. Luckily, the only damage I did was to my right rear door...but im still real pissed.

Here are a couple pictures:




Now, money's a little tight with the holidays and everything so I'm looking for the most inexpensive way to fix this..I have a $500 dollar deductible on my insurance and would like to avoid making a claim if possible. (They enjoy raising the rates on 20 year old drivers) Can this be popped out or am I going end up having to have to replace the door? The picture doesn't make it look as "deep" of dent as it is.

 

A good paintless dent removal guy should be able to massage that out. Try taking pics during the day so we could see the damage better.

If he's unable to, then I would get quotes from body shops as to how much the total repair would be. GL

 

was vsa on or off when u did that? or worse yet were you driving on summer tires?

u will need an estimate to get that one fixed. it is gonna be hard for if not impossible to remove that there crease....
