Wasn't paying attention and was leaning back a bit, lost my balance and fell back a bit against the fuel door. The door is fine but it left a damn ding. The ONLY ding on my friggin car! I have a couple of scratches (light ones) but that's it...How da heck did some of those other dings on there?? I know you're not the original owner but still, some of them look like they guy mighta been eating at fast food place that brings food out to your car on a tray that hangs off your door. (those by the drivers/passengers window, top of door, under glass.)

And the obligatory after shots, even though you can't see a thing... He missed a couple of minor spots I didn't circle and the road debris damage was only partially successful, but I would say I got my money's worth. I may even start displaying it at shows now.

He said it was for the driver's door only, which is rather expensive since a re-paint is slightly more than that.
Now $300 for the whole car is a steal indeed.
OP, so you got the whole car done for $300?
If so, send that guy down to Florida will ya?

Thanks for the compliments, guys...
Yeah, even better, it was through the dealership. The estimator came out and spent about 15 minutes looking at it, and I told him if he could get it done for $300, I would make the appointment right then. He said he would talk to the PDR guy and give me a call. The PDR guy agreed and I kept my promise. I actually get a feeling he might have gone lower if I hadn't named my price. I had one body shop say it could do everything except the road debris for $140, but I wanted to get it done right.
When they brought the car around, a couple of the sales people came up and complimented me on it.
