Default dent on the door

Hello guys..I just realized that there is a small dent on my door...

I wish I can find the f***er who did it and beat the s*** outta him/her but

sigh............ I always park SOOOO far away and still got a dent

from some f***er...

anyway, I live in NJ, Bergen County and curious if there is a good shop

near that does a good job for cheap price. I heard Dent Wizard is good but

I think the price is a bit high...

I'm so bugging out and can't even sleep..lol

Check with your local dealer, most have a contract mobile guy that will come out and massage the dent with a special tool. He will have to drill a hole on the inside of your door jam to get his special tool in there and then work his magic. My 350Z door when opening it got a blast of the 35 mph winds and smacked my door into my bros 350Z and put a good size dent in the door. The dent guy came and drilled and then placed a rubber plug in the door jam where he drilled and it looks like one of the mfg plugs you see around the car, no one ever knew and the cost was amazing only $50 and he did not have to paint the door.

I contacted my dealer and they gave me the number to the mobil guy that they use. I called him and he came to my house and got the dent out of my door is less then 30 min. Cost me 100.00 dollars. Local shop wanted to charge me 800.00 dollars.

Check with your local car guys. They may know someone that can fix it for cheap. Typically 35-40 for wholesale price.
