Roof Damage

shaun66 · 03-14-2014, 09:28 PM

So my car sat in a parking garage all last week. I come back to find shoe prints all over my dusty *** car. On the roof, hatch and hood. Well I washed my car today and turns out someone walked on top of my car!

So the roof is bent in slightly and doesn't look right anymore. You can't particularly feel anything running your hands over it, but you can see it pretty easily off the reflection of the paint.

Can a body shop fix this? Maybe push it out from underneath? Anybody have an address to the ******* that did this so i can put a 12 gauge down their throat?
Thanks.

Easy thhere fella i know how u feel, ppl **** all over my car too, but it doesn't mean u have to kill em, just kick their teeth in so that they eat from a straw 4 the rest of their life. I personally think thats more satisfying.

In any case bend it out ur self from underneath just kick it in the rite place it should come back up, i did that to my bumper after some @$$ hit my side. And if it dont work just buy a cf roof add-on and glue it, shouldn't be noticeable.

Security cameras in the parking garage?
Might be worth the trouble.

Any pain and suffering for the perpetrator would help suffice mine. Going to see if I can push up on my roof tomorrow, but I don't think it's bent in enough to just push out that easily. Will give it a shot though.

Cameras were only by the elevators, but I was parked too far away for my car to be on footage. I just don't understand how people can go out of their way to damage a car sitting there. Especially walking on top of it! They're just lucky I didn't catch them in the act.

Makes me crazy just reading this

Hair dryer and a can of air may pop that right out for you.

You know a 12G is way to quick and easy.... This type of as* hole deserves a very very slow and painful death....

Want to avoid trying to remove roof liner since I would probably just do more damage to the car.

The roof is very flexible I can "massage" it if you will, up and down, but theres imperfections in it that don't want to come out

If the metal is kinked then I think there's always going to be an impression.

You should be able to do it from the outside. No need to remove the roof liner. Treat it like a fender.
