Nice dent in drivers side door

Just wanted to rant alittle bit. Last week I was running some errands before I went to work, and I get back to my house and realize someone did a number on my drivers side door. Left a dent about half way down chiped paint off the plastic that surrounds the door handle and left a bunch of red paint down the side of my truck. The best thing is I was worried about driving my truck every day, so I was in the process of getting another car, which I got less than 3 days later. Someone up there doesn't like me very much.

The dent is about a half-dollar in size and was wondering how much it would cost to get it fixed? Ohh and it is slightly creased, which I know will cause problems.

Probably around $300. I was taking my dirt bike to work one day and apparently I didn't secure it properly. I had a platform that fit in my hitch. I came to a stop and the bike struck my tailgate!!! and in put a crease in it, needless to say it cost $300!

I don't know what color your truck is or the size of the dent. BUT I do PDR (paintless dent removal) and if the dent is a reasonable size it might be PDRable. Call around and check. A medium size dent is about $75 here in Illinois. And as long as there is red on your truck it might be able to be sanded and buffed out.


Anyhow any dent is a bummer so good luck on the fix.
