Angry I got a dent!!!!!

So im washing my car and i notice a very tiny tiny dent on the rear quarter panel. Man my heart sunk. It is not noticeable, but when its your car that is the first thing that you notice. Anybody know how much the repairs will be for this? I sure as hell aint gonna leave it like that even though it is not noticeable. My baby cost me 38,000. She deserves fixing.

ditto, as long as it's not too big and the paint didn't crack, it should be cheap to fix. If it's bigger, or the paint is damaged, you may have to pay quite a bit more. Trick is to find a good body shop that won't screw you. Sometimes, even if it's too much for paintless, they can get it "almost" perfect for a cheaper price, and you could save hundreds with it looking very good. I had a pretty big door ding on my pickup last year from some jerk who obviously didn't stick around. The paint was damaged and there was a pretty good sized dent. A body shop that I have used forever removed the dent and did some cosmetic work without painting the entire thing. You can barely tell it was there unless you really look closely, but it saved a ton of money doing it that way. Nobody will ever know it was there. I'm about as **** about this kind of thing as anyone, and I'm fine with this correction.

Paintless dent removal..............hmmm. Does every body shop do this. If it is true that it is not noticeable, i will go that route. I thought i was going to have to pay hundreds, because I know how much bullcrap is stated on an estimate.
