250 How to fix that dent?

  1. I was victim of the wind in Wales. My car's door smashed to the bin and I have got "lovely" dent. Any ideas how to sort it out?

    I am not sure if I can just bang it with hammer, because paint may come off and then it will be bigger disaster then it is currently.

  3. Oh that's a cracker mate! Try using a moulded plastic/rubber mallet, will save the paint a bit better. Other than that I doubt there's a better way
     
  4. Fill, sand and the whole side painted I would say.
     
  5. It is too much hassle. I think rather to try to mask it with some door stripe.

    That'll look rubbish.

    Either swap the door or get it painted.

    No other option really
     
  7. Ouchhhh! Same place as mine , right on the crease . You'll have to get it painted & blended into the rear aswell ... Quoted £250-£400 for mine from two places. Just leaving It for now..
     
  8. Yeah £250 sounds about right :-(

    If not to paint the door about £230

    done similar myself but no where near as bad, I used a folded up piece if rag and a mans hammer lol came out ok on mine just needed a touch up where paint had been chipped on the bastard wall :smile:
     
  15. I haven't done it today. I am waiting for rubber hammer. It should sort out thing in safe manner.
     
  16. Job done. I was using rubber hummer and old towel. It took me about 10 seconds to sort it out.
