    Stuff and junk and things...
    Per the pics posted, You're fucked, that crease isn't going to pop out with a suction cup or witch craft. Best bet is a dolly and someone to skin it/repaint it.

    Not that part, I already got that out. The little circle on the doors. Didn't want to have to remove the door panel again.

    Instead of the dowel, glue a bolt that fits a slide hammer...and to remove the hot glue, use denatured alcohol

    My buddy did some paintless dent repair. Melt the large glue stick in the middle of the dent. Grab glue stick with vice grips and apply outward pressure while tapping the ridge of the dent with the dowel. Remove glue stick with denatured alcohol when done.

    And I'm not sure if you saw the mythbusters episode, but putting dimples on a car increased the gas mileage. So you might be onto something.

    Yesterday, at the wedding I offered to take a photo of a couple opposed to them having to take a selfie.
    Female guest: I would rather have a female do it.
    Me: Ok- my wife will do it.
    Wife: um, Sean is a decent photographer (mind you/ this is a damn cell phone camera) and I would rather him do it, or your picture may be screwed.
    Female guest: ok- if you can vouch for him.

    :rolleyes:

    Having messed around with this enough yesterday to find lots of things that don't work and one system that does, I am now a self-proclaimed expert on synthetic winch line splicing :D

    DONT WANT
    Duct tape. It doesn't slide nice through the center of the rope
    Any kind of pointed fid. It's too easy to "weave" a pointed fid through strands rather than staying nicely in the center of the rope.
    A knife. It's a bitch to cut the rope and even the strands for a taper with a knife.

    DO WANT
    Electrical tape. Low bulk, nice and slippery
    1/4" extension. Dull tip, nice and slippery.
    Sharp scissors. Cut the stuff much easier.

    @thefatkid

    My splice kit
    1484497436945957660134.jpg

    Now I just need to put this whole kit in a cordura pouch, then in a Pelican case with foam cutouts, and then bolt it to my swing out for maximum EAF cred.

    I hate increased gas mileage! It's not EAF!

    Thats one the outside of the pelican case to secure the other two spare winch lines in a dynema pouch.
