So I found a door ding the other day on the passanger side door. Its a small one but its a vertical dent that is about 2 inches long. So its an obvious car door

Is it best to get this taken care of right off the bat? Will it be harder to remove the later it gets? I don't plan on getting bumped out right away because it would probably cost around $70-$100. Whats the best option do you think? Any good places in SD to get this done if I need to?

 

you dont need to do PDR right away... actually better to do it on a
warm day to minimize paint cracking although heatgun can be used.

www.dentwizard.com should have someone local. your dealer probably
has a guy that comes in every day to fix dings on their used cars.

 

Did you join WCM (San Diego MINI club) ??? I've got a huge clinic for the club this Saturday and my PDR guy will be there. Why don't you come up and join us--we're having a huge potluck feast.

Sorry to hear that...pretty damn annoying, isn't it...

We had our first door ding about four weeks ago...mall parking lot, high winds, truck door...and our MINI...it took the hit next to the right rear tail light at the corner. Had a local PDR come to the house a few days later (early Jan when it was rainy/cold in Ventura County) and he did a wonderful job...looks pristine again .

Good luck with getting it fixed.

 

Dang! I have a wedding to go to this saturday! Damn.... Its up in LA right? I do want to meet and ask questions sometime.... Maybe if I come up in the morning and get to the wedding later.... I will get back to you Richard. thanks for the heads up!

gotta get to work now

 

man you guys are too lucky...

and even have to rub in a potluck feast. not a regular potluck lunch, but
a potluck feast.

 

ok nevermind I think Im going to go anyway. Richard I will register on showcardetailing once I find out what time that wedding is and if the other owner wants to go as well....

 

Yep at my shop in Placentia--Orange County near Fullerton and Anaheim.

As a proud WCM member, we don't ever do anything just "regular", lol. I've got an assistant coming to help with the cooking duties--we've got two propane grills--it's gonna be a blast. =)

 

I guess I hijacked my own thread .... but since Im waiting approval for showcardetailing forum, could you place me down on the list for 2 people and one mini? I will get back to you on the food.

thanks for the heads up by the way.

 

damn... and we're sitting here idling in 0F -22F windchill... :impatient

 

Hmm, I approved you 3 hours ago. =)..oops never mind--I see you posted. =) I'll send you a PM on SCD.

 

apparently OG can not keep track of his girlfriends.

 

damn do people assume I'm a chick because of my name!? OG already made that mistake once..ha. I just have a uniquely spelled name with a K. I guess I never really put myself in other people's shoes on a message board...

 

no, cause you keep talking about a wedding.

 

touché...

 

well, im glad we were able to get your mind off your ding for at least
the time you were here.

 

Pix from this weekends clinic...



Sorry I was too busy, didn't get any pix of the feast, but it was wonderful!!

 

looks like you had a nice turn out.

yah, im kinda hungry right now so best not to show any picts of feasts.
