Obviously I would like to avoid Bondo
But please tell me what best thing to do would be .
I'm sure a new door and paint etc will be more then 400
But here is the pic of scratch , door rubbed up against a brick fire fireplace ...
Attached thumbnail(s)
Does the paintless dent removal guy also do the repaint or just
The dent then I take it to repaint elsewhere
Is the color/damage "in" the paint or "on" the paint--can be polished out if it's on top--then PDR and you're good to go...
shipping a replacement would be expensive. REAL expensive. ask them how much $ when you bring the car in with EVERYTHING off it that they would have to remove. what ever their hourly rate is, you don't want to pay them to do the task.
Well, did you have to move the sofa to get your car next to the fireplace?
And yes PDR works. If you don't have a referral, Stop by any big brand car dealers preowned lot. They'll have a top notch PDR guy one or two days a week there. Pay him directly in cash for a good price.
Ok I got a Guy with skills
He fixed it , great job 150
Now I have a primer spot under the door handle the size of a playing card
The p d r guy does not do paint
However he said after looking over the car that
It has significant amount of bondo
The panel between the hood and windshield has sap and
Will need a repaint in 2 years
And the rest of the cars paint will last maybe 4 more years of I'm lucky
So he recommend s that I get it painted at a body shop or just
Sand it down and spray paint it myself
And put more emphasis on getting the entire car done
In the near future
