How big is this dent (in diameter)? Dent/ding removal rates for 1" dents run around $50 or so... better rates for group buys if you can manage it. Sorry to hear about your incident nonetheless.

do you have a Dent Wizard or something similar around you? they removed a dent out of my BMW for $60, it was about a quarter sized dent. if you can find something similar to Dent Wizard (i dont know if theyre local or not) they will get it out for cheap.

With previous cars, I've had pretty good luck with the Dent removal kit you get from auto parts stores...it has a glue gun and a little vice-type-thing to pull the dents out. If you have no paint damage and the dent isn't along a crease, I'd give it a try. It's like $20.

People need to learn how to park around my way, twice people with huge freaking cars swear they can fit into a small little parking apot right behind mine, little do I know that they scratch my bumper and then deny it when I blatantly see the scratches. Damn old people, 65+ needs to stay on the subway and leave driving to 64 and under. O yea the second time was that someone hit my front bumper and broke my LP holder and took my LP somewhere else, now I have to pay for a new one, but with this snow storm I don't know when I will have the time. TURTLE WAX scratch remover works excellent and uses only small dabs for like 5 or 6 coats and gets the scratches right out, $2.99 for $100 worth of scratches, I higly reccomended. If you want before and after picturs I can show you.

Don't get dent removal kits, they are useless. Namely, ding king, outrageous piece of crap. Anyway, just pay to have paintless dent removal done for 50 bux, they will have it back to normal in no time.
