Default Door ding- aaaaaahhh!

Washed my S today and found a tiny door ding on the rear corner panel just above the fender. It was small enough that I couldnt see it when my car was dirty, but it is driving me insane now that it is clean. You need to be looking for the ding to find it, but it just bothers me. Can I get this repaired at my Honda dealership? Am I better off going to some body shop? Suggestions please.

you gotta go the route of PDR (paintless ding repair)... stay away from your dealership, but do a couple searches for companies in your area... they can do wonders... as long as the ding is not on an aluminum surface, you should be okay...

good luck...

I had two good sized dings removed from my last car with the paintless dent removal process and it cost about $75. You could NOT tell where they had been when it was finished. Just fantastic. They generally charge by the amount of time that it takes to remove the dent, so yours shouldn't be too much as long as it's accessible from the backside. The fellow that I used was recommended to me by my insurance agent (they know where to go) and was a local business, but boy was he busy.

Good luck,
Bob
