DENT IN NEW CAR, what can I do ?

[UnatcoAgent]

Ok I got my 98 (new for me ) crv 2 nights ago, I'm not sure if this happened before I owned it or in the last day. Anyway directly above the rear driver's side wheel well there is a dent about 2 cm to an inch or so obviously caused by a door, probably a child opening his next to me or something. Anyway what can I do? Can it be fixed ? Cost ? Thanks guys.

paintless dent removal but not worth it if it's only one dent

when tell you ha vea bunch on a panel and then have em all removed at the same time for about the same cost

Billy Mayes has a dent remover out now

That won't work but it would probably cost a couple hundred bones at a body shop.

Really that much !? feck

people who are careless opening doors suck.

I honestly wouldn't worry about it unless you have to have it perfect. I have one perfect car and one car that I give a sh!t less about. The perfect car has drained me.

It's gonna cost you $100 to fix a dent if you take it to the shop, not worth it.

Its on because of my mum, its like the nicest thing she has ever owned and it was such a nice thing to get perfect. Its really not noticable, so I guess its not worth it. I'll take some pics tomorrow and see what you guys think, thanks so far though.

this is why all cars should have vertical doors.

My uncle tried one of those when someone put a nice dent in his camaro. It didn't 100% remove it, but it looks MUCH better, and he said it was real quick & easy to use. Might want to give it a shot....

that's one of those "so obvious you don't see it" kind of ideas. it would be a lot better if car doors went up... although i guess it might be more dangerous for when you get in a crash (harder to get the doors open).

they quoted me about $550 for 2 dents. easy to get the dent fixed but paint job and labor is gonna cost you. I didnt get the job done cuz its way too much money for $550.

RMA it and say that the box was dented and opened and it seemed to be used so you want a new.

what i like in that commercial is that when they remove one dent, you can see it has created 2 new dents

ding king = suction cup + hot glue.

Wait till a few more wrinkles and dents show up before you spend the money..by then you may be used to looking at em and won't care. I whish they would make a non gloss slightly textured auto finish that doesn't show the minor dings and scratches.
