Vandals Dented my car PICS - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So, I was walking out of best buy yesterday and I notice a huge dent in my car next to the wheel well. I was thinking to myself how the hell does that happen when I park in the back of the lot, with no cars within 100ft of mine.

So, the paintless dent people says its going to be a $240 fix. Thanks a lot Vandals.

No camera's in the best buy parking lot?

I could call and ask them to look at the video, but Ive heard the quality of the video isnt enough to catch a license plate number.

You can try the old blow dryer compressed air trick.

I have used it and it really works.

Vandals damn, I was the same with my subaru impreza, the problem is that it was a lady of 80 years and I could not do anything ...

I hope your pretty green girl can be fixed soon

I did it on a large dent on a Tahoe that was on a crease. It worked well. It can't hurt. Most you are out is 10 minutes and 1/2 a can of air.

austinjames · 10-26-2011, 11:27 AM

what kind of air can do you use? and where can i get one?

11BEE · 10-26-2011, 11:29 AM

It is the computer / electronics compressed air. You can get it at any office supply store, walmart, radio shack, electronics store and maybe even a large pharmacy.

I came out to my car from my grandma's apartment complex lol, with a phantom dent high up on the quarter panel (the only metal part of my 4th gen lol) so i will try this tonight and post a video if it works!

Very very excited.

I am sorry that happened. One of my big fears is what happened to you. I also park in the back of the lot. Let us know how it turns out.
