Jonny777 0 Posted January 6, 2010 Thats sh*t man. :( Yeah i reckon that'll probably need a new door, but i'd try and get a quote off a dent remover. They're usually pretty good. :) But you never know, may still be cheaper to get another door in your colour. Some people are such ars*holes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex_G60_Fanatic 0 Posted January 6, 2010 i had that happen to me at work :( Same door same position. Ever since then i always park miles away and walk... rather than have my rado with dents and crap. I took the door off mine and beat it out. Trouble is with the bend in the metal you never quite get it all out so you have to sand and fill it afterwards with some Ipon 38 or something to get a truely smooth finish. You may be better off looking for a cheep second hand door. i would have done it myself but i was trying to do it on a shoe string Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vagman 0 Posted January 6, 2010 Thats a really sh*t fella!!! Accidents happen, but its not nice when you have passion for your car and people do this, and its always in the back of your mind that your car will be ok next time you park it up somewhere! Plus there is the cost. Hope you get it sorted soon! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neutech 0 Posted January 7, 2010 No Hassle bud i know what its like some AHole took mirror off my van back august last year and finished by leavin a deep score on rear qtr panel, quick trip to town centre CCTV office got me the bus that did it, but sadly no reg number and looked same as all other ulsterbus's you see about. hope you catch the AHole, remember to get the footage copied to disc for evidence incase the system writes over top of it again in short space of time, you can also request footage under data protection laws in South from other peoples systems :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
