Smile Small dent at top of door



This just suddenly appeared one day and I'm not really sure what I can do about it.
I took it to a body shop that does paintless dent removal but the guy had no prior experience working on S2k's. He was talking about drilling here and there to find out if its possible to get the tool he uses to that spot. Needless to say I didnt want this guy drilling different holes in my door just to find out if he can do it or not so I left.

I'd like to know if anyone's had a similiar dent repaired, how it was done and how much it costed?

that looks too easy for pros. i don't think drilling is necessary on yours.

Do you live in the SoCal area? I think they're having a dent day on the 7th of Oct. But the dent doesn't look that bad. Maybe those suction dent removal techniques will work for you. I'm not going to back up my claim because I don't have that much knowlege in dent removal, but hopefully it works out for you. Good luck.

A pro can get that out. May have to take the door apart, but it can be done.
