on one of my door pieces of my L ground fx closest to the bed of the truck... There is a dent that kinda bends inward .. is it possible to get this fixed? or could a really hot oven make this flexable to bend it back to the right shape? or should i just buy a new one. if anyone knows please reply with something useful, Thanks

Not sure how thick that area is,but might be able to use a heat gun to warm it up and bend it back. Just dont cook it. Good blow dryer might be even better. Is the paint cracked? It might start to flake off if you bend it back. I did something like that on a Focus bumper with a blow dryer.

Just a couple of cents from me.

good idea, thanks!, no the paint isnt cracked or anything its going to be painted oxford white so paint isnt a problem at all.. I just want to be able to either get it fixed or fix it myself. it looks like as if heat had gotten to it and caused it to warp.

Now that talent, can type and run a hair dryer. glad its working for ya.

Now remember though, no driving while typing and using the blow dryer.

Sled...

 

*that's

I guess you're still working on the typing thing

 

Bite me joe. Typing never was one of my strong points.

Dj, How did that work out? Did that dent come out all the way?

Sled...

 

well, It came out for the most part its still slightly visible.. really not much at all though but i think im gonna get a hotter blow dryer and as long as i dont melt it i think ill be fine. I have to be REALLy careful though cuz this one my dad is going ot bring home is like something used in a factory to melt things like glue or anything else..i dunno but i nkow its extremely hot...anyway if it looks like it will be a bad idea ill leave it to a body shop or someone else who can fully remove the dents but its not that big of a deal if they dont get removed at all because like i said there not really visible. (well they were before i used the hair dryer but it worked pretty good )

 

yes good luck and good job staying awaty from the oven idea
