If the paint isn't broken around the ding, a good paintless dent removal guy can do wonders. I have had my guy Bobby from Dent Devil take out dents and dings that you would think would have had to go to a body shop, he is really amazing. Do some research, interview them, ask questions and make sure they have atleast 5 years experience. You will be suprised it isn't as bad as you think. Good Luck. I wish people would be moe considerate in parking lots, some people just drive crap and don't care.

thanks for your kind words gtguy
my sponsor is bringing in his dent guys (sposed to be the best in the biz) to see if they can fix it. I have used dent guys before but this worries me as it is on the crease JR told me not to worry about it and hes gonna take care of it. I hope so
Anyways I got some bros coming over to play poker, I thank you all for your opinons, I am gonna do some "research on the ding in relation to his door and go from there"
in mean time im thinkin im pretty lucky to have the friends i do to keep my car looking good, covered in salt and sand or not

Ok I can see the damage better but until it is looked at by a paint and body shop I have no real advice to give you on what it will cost and if it can be repaired vs. a new door skin..... pascal and bodyman can help if they chime in!

Keep your cool. You're a poker player, eh. Are you a good poker player? Start chatting with the guy you suspect, and mention to him that someone damaged the door of your car, and that you are having a paint analysis done to determine the make of the vehicle that left its mark. Also mention that you have filed a police report. Again, keep your cool. Winning at poker is not necessarily having the best hand. One of the things you have to do is keep your cool. Have I mentioned that often enough? Good luck! Oh, keep your cool.
