Got a ding

What's the best way to fix this

 

"Ding" or Bullet hole
Check out the detailer section here at Tacomaworld..

 

That looks like it needs a professional.

 

How the heck did that happen!

 

Drive by. It will buff out.

 

I think it's a write off... part out time

 

Looks like 9mm.....

 

Bondo time...

Seriously, that's not a regular ding. What the fuck caused that?

 

I hit my door on a metal bracket in my garage.

 

Jesus, knew the doors were thin, but wow.

 

Yes... a metal bracket...

 

ill take a pic of what i hit later on

 

Depends on how much you want to spend and what happened (ie if you can make an insurance claim without it hurting you).

A complete fix is likely going to require a new door (or paintless dent removal and re-sculpting with bondo) and a new paint job.

Luckily you have a white truck, best color ever for any kind of repair.

If it were me (and I had a bad situation happen to me recently that was likely over $2,000 worth of damage) I would get someone who does paintless dent removal to take a look at it. Then I would look into wet sanding, spot touch up, and polishing post dent removal. You can do this yourself for probably a reasonable amount if you don't have any detailing equipment like a dual action (DA) polisher. My guess is under $500 for DIY. Less if you have all the tools and products you need.

The guys in the detailing section can really help you out. Post this there.

 

Go with the drive by story.
Sorry man, I know being pissed off at your self is the worst! Body shop would prolly just
''skin" the door. Still expensive

 

That doesn't look like a bullet hole lol
