Default dented speed 3

Some a$*-clown dented my Speed3 in a parking lot!!!! I won't even go into detail here about my anger, cause I know you all feel me. What would you guys do about good sized ding; about an inch by a 1/2 inch. I went to the local collision shop that does all our ambulances and cop cars where I work.....and they quoted me $630 bucks, sounded crazy to me. It's not really creased, just pushed in and kinda wavy looking; weird dent.

I'm sure I could puta bigger dent in the jerks car that did it....with his forehead!

signed,
Disappointed in D-Town

same thing happened to me in the movies parking lot on my speed3. on the driver side passenger door. dented in plus a scratched. estimated for $450. way too much for a small thing.. it hurts but i decided to leave it as it. the thing is i didnt even take it to a collision shop. i took it to a guy hoo does EXCELLENT backyard work. thats as low as he would go. $630 is way too steep. jsut buy urself a new door. lol

I would just deal with it if I didn't see the guy do it and got his information. With EVERY new car comes a scratch and you just have to go...oh well. I curbed a rim and I was pissed for 2 seconds then went...oh well...happens with new cars.

See I learned after one where my tires were, but apparently it took you more than once.

Try finding a paintless repair shop if the paint is not crack or damage. It will do a nice job and keep the factory paint etc. Cost will be arond $100.00.
