Default Drivers side Ding

Went out to wash the wifes car today and there's an F-ing ding in the drivers side quarter panel from some a$$holes door. Its making me sick at the moment. First of all what can be done with the paint, it looks like the clearcoat is scratched pretty good. Second, the quarter sized dent? Anyone ever use those guys that do paintless dent removal??

Yeah, the paintless dent repair is pretty good. We had it done to quite a few cars in the bodyshop I worked in. The results were great. As for the paint, sometimes it can be buffed out, not always though.
Could you post a pic of the dent?

"Dent Wizard" type people can get it out. Sometimes the clear will spider web crack though. After it's done, if you can't buff it (the clear) then wet sand and buff som more. It will work out and you wont go to jail for killing some clutz!

Thanx for the feedback guys. I tried taking a few pics but the reflection was too bad to get anything helpful.
