[B](800) DENTWIY.

 

I have no dents or dings on the car so far. I usually have it parked in my garage, ot when I do park it somewhere else, it gets parked WAY out there.

The only problems I have so far are with chips in the paint from rocks and other debris flying at me on the freeway.

 

That's because you ZAINO'd your S2000 182 times! I'm amazed the bulb pieces did not hover over your car from the level of protection!

I never noticed it on your hood! I'll look for it on my next trip up there. . .

Everyone, I am sure by now. . .knows of the dents I had on my S2000 from the Honda dealer!

My baby is fixed now so I should not be upset. . .guess it's just the principal!

 

One door ding down to the metal. That's because I work at the mall and no matter how far away I park, someone always parks next to me. I've also got at least 10 chips on the front end also. A local bodyshop told me minimum $1500 to fix it all. Oh well, what can you do?

 

Yep... ya right... The Honda touch up paint sux big donkey schlonge.

After inquiry, Honda Japan wrote to me and told me the
little touch up can in each car is the same paint they spray
the car with.

I say "BS" !! It's off by a mile.

Yeah, what is it when you park far off, and you think nobody will park next to you, and you come out... And have two to four cars parked around you. No one else is parked near you or these cars?

1. Maybe they think the S2000 needs company?
2. Or do they think, "hmmm that cars parked away from everyone I'll show him..."
3. Such a nice car, I'll park next to it and I am sure they will take care not to open their doors in to my car...

I have had people park within inches of my car, I guess to make me angry. Have have two door dings one really bad, and several paint chips do to speed...and rocks on I635, in Dallas.

To drive the car damages it (wear and tear, rock chips etc.) eventually something will happen but its a car, it can be fixed. I wish other companies would take the saturn approach and use plastics for the doors - they don't ding. Chrysler has been promising a composite with the paint injected into it but that yet has to be seen in production.

When I park I try to park to a car as expensive or more than mine, and make sure its a sedan (smaller doors).

 

I can attest to the Dent Wizard - live in Maryland and have used them twice for a dimple in the rear trunk lid and another in the pasenger. Cost a couple of bucks and you'd never even notice.

Have a few minor paint chips on the right fender and hood - actually used the Turtle Wax product that has the colored wax which is supposed to match the paint finish and the accessory that looks like a tube of lipstick.

Not phenomenal, but will tell you that using the 'lipstick' does mask the chip to the point of not being noticable unless you really now where it is located.

Also, just purchased the Corgan nose mask - nice product for highway travelling or other bad roads - looks sharp with the headlight modification and saves a lot of frustration over getting ships/scratches.

But, anyway - the Dent Wizard, use 'em. Once you see what they can do, you never, ever worry about another dimple or minor dent. In fact, my wife took my Accord Coupe V6 EX on a business trip and came back with a creased dent in the pasenger door. Thought there would be no hope and the Dent Wizard took care of that one - would never even know anything was there.

 

S2KCA is wrapping up a sponsorship agreement with a dent removal company - look for an announcement soon.

 

For those of you in DFW are, there is a guy in bedford that does a great job. He took out my door ding for $35. Can't even tell I had one there.
