Default new owner, new to forum

Hi,
Been lurking for a while, bought MY07 Silverstone wi/black-red interior one month ago today . Went to wash my new baby today and found a door dent in the right rear quarter panel area, (almost exactly opposite of the fuel door). I knew it was inevitable sometime, but it still ticks me off. Oh well, I guess I'll contact the local PDR folks and get the touch up paint and clay out. BTW love my car and this forum.

have you seen this video?

they remove a dent with a hair dryer and compressed air can. Dunno if itll work with your dent, but seems like a useful procedure

Canned,
Yep, as soon as I saw the dent I went to the Wash and Wax forum and found that video. I tried it per the video twice and figure the dent must be too small because it didn't work. It isn't really noticeable (I did touch up paint it) unless the sun hits it right. Of course since I know where it is it looks pretty danged big to me! I found a couple of the paintless dent remover business here in Medford OR and am going to see if they can make it "fixed" for me.
Thanks for the welcome and video!
