Dent
Sunday, February 12, 2012 11:31 AM
So this happened to my car at some point over the past 3 or 4 days. I've only driven the car in the dark this last week with the exception of today. That's when I noticed the dent. I have a suction cup dent puller but I can't get it to grip well enough on the dent to actually pull it. I guy I work with suggested that I may be able to push it out from the inside if i can take the paneling off in the back seat. Any thoughts or suggestions?

I can see from the suction cup mark you didnt bother to clean the area before trying to get a grip....that dirt isnt gonna help getting a good suction on it

Also....this appears to be the 2 Door....Mine is also a 2 Door and I can tell you messing around getting the interior panel out of the way is a pain in the ass and you need to be an acrobat to maneuver around inside taking it out.

Washed the car, dent popped out. Go figure? It has some wrinkles in in right now. Not impressed. But I guess it's better than a big dent.

I have a dent in the same location and its a LOT worse....some retard pulled out of a gas station as I was pulling in as if I wasnt right in front of him...a nice deep crinkled dent

Insurance covered it....his insurance paid me $2000 and I got to keep the car....it just had to be marked totalled. still 100% drivable just need to hit inspections before re-registering it in a few years
