Woke up Saturday morning to head out to meet a friend later in the day. About lunch time I pull off my cover and start up my car, excited to see how clean it looked after scrubbing it down the night before. I didn't do a walk around this time like I usually do because I was in a hurry. So off I went, deciding to stop at the gas station on the way out to fuel up. As I'm about to fill her up, my friend pulls up next to me at the same gas station. His girlfriend leans over and points to my car, asking me if something had always been there. I looked confused, wondering what she was gesturing to. I walked around from the pump and to my surprise I find a nice big dent on the fender, just behind the wheel well. No paint marks, no scrapes, no knicks- just a big ol' dent.
Have you guys ever come out to see your first gen baby dented up or scuffed pretty bad? Were you worried? I feel like my problem isn't bad and it's affordable to fix. There's a slight crease where the paint cracked, but it's very very small.
That sucks... Have you found the culprit? No random dents here but was fully twisted at my mechanic when I found out he left my car outside! for 3 weeks before working on it.
Looks like a hard swift kick. I'd be worried what's next... If cant store inside, maybe video cam to catch them.
You know, people were saying that until they saw my car cover. It's torn where the dent is. What have people done to remove their dents? The body work guy said 300 dollars and he'll have to put some bondo in the car. I'm not really looking to put bondo in my car. There's none in it at all.
I would show the damage to a Paintless dent repair company and hear what they think about it. Even if they can't fix it without destroying your current paint job, they should be able to straighten the sheet metal almost back to normal.
I had a similar dent on my F150 suicide door...slid into a tree on ice...the paintless repair guy took it out with NO sign it was ever there, and it was the size of a football, with creases top and bottom but no paint cracks. Cost $150!!
