Dent

I recently got a dent on the front of my truck. I am not to sure how it got there. I am thinking a fallen branch but I didn't see one that would be big enough to dent it. I attached a picture. Any idea how to fix this dent? Do I try to have someone take it out or is there a product I should try? Not to sure if you can see it in the pictures but it is right in front of the scoop. Any help or advise would be great.

 

I think a dent removal guy can get in there with his tools and massage it out. Does not look like it's creased so you may not even notice it.

 

Suction cup!!! Plunger! Open the hood and go from the bottom, push it back out

 

Paintless dent removal shop should be able to take care of that easily. I've had a few dents that were worse than that and they removed them with no evidence of it ever being there. Cost should be less than $150. I'm so OCD about stuff like that I would be sitting at the shop right now

 

I'd also go to a well recommended dent repair shop. After having the dent happen oin the first place I'd hate to either make it worse, or do a crappy job when it might disappear if done correctly the first time.

I feel for you ...
The first dent is always the deepest ...
but hopefully they stay small.

 

Get a can of that compressed air in a can, for cleaning keyboards. Turn it upside down and ice the whole dent over. While it's iced up, heat it quickly with a hair dryer. It should pop right out

 

Looks like one of the neighbor kids hit a homerun and you were just beyond the fence.... man that sucks! +2 paintless dent repair

 

Yea what I figured. It is the first dent and not to sure how it happened and I rather just ring it somewhere I was thinking suction cup but don't want to do more damage. Thanks for the replies guys

 

This should work well for dents from people opening their doors and leaving small dents on the door?

 

It actually works better on larger dents like in the OP, but it only costs a few bucks and no more damage will happen if you try, so I say go for it. Nothing really to lose except $3 or $4 bucks for the compressed air can

 

Let us know if you decide to try it.

 

Agree with going the PDR route. Did you by any chance recently refused a hood trade and angered one of the non scoop guys?

 

PDR FTW!

I see you're in CT - I know a guy based out of East Hartford if you're interested. I used him when I worked in vehicle remarketing and even had him take care of a dent or two on my personal car.

 

Been busy lately so I don't think I'll have any time soon. :/
