AHHHHH!! I GOT A DING!!!!! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

AmericanV8 · 03-17-2010, 02:43 PM

I don't know how it happened. My camaro was parked on the inlaws driveway for 4hrs and there were no cars next to me at all. I'm starting to think one of the neighborhood kids hit it with a ball or something. Or it could be a hater that did it on purpose.

Anyhow, it's there and i want it fixed now. Based on the photo can anyone give me insight if those mobile dent remover companies can fix it?? Sorry for the bad pic all i have at the moment is my iphone. Thanks in advance!

Right on a crease! I don't know if the mobile dent remover companies can. Did you get that ding insurance from the dealer?

That sucks man, but you can join the club I am in. Both my doors have marks cause of people leaning against them looking inside I am guessing, but they are scratches to the primer.

I would call one of them and ask if they can do a paintless dent removal on a crease. Worth a shot.

Thanks man! I will call them right now and see what they say.

Wow, I am sorry for that you got a dent on your new Car... I will pray for a speedy recovery..

AmericanV8 · 03-17-2010, 03:21 PM

Thanks guys. I've owned several sports cars and never got a ding in my LIFE. I'm always careful where i park and It had to happen to my all time favorite car. haha!!

Oh well, life goes on. I'll get over it......

markmass · 03-17-2010, 03:24 PM

Had one exact same spot. My local guy went in from underneath (normally goes through the door jamb) - drilled through the first skin to get to the dent and pushed it out. sealed the hole - perfect job - wouldn't know it was ever done - $90

AmericanV8 · 03-17-2010, 03:29 PM

Thanks markmass!! I'm glad that it could be done without major work. I was quoted 75-90 bucks so not too bad. I could've gotten a some gas with that money. Ha!

I already paid 1,400 out of pocket to get some damage out of the front that someone hit and run did.

DetailAddict · 03-18-2010, 12:24 AM
