Adam Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Brother, what a drag! Try the paintless guys first, that may be an option. Things like this happen to one of our vehicles at least once a year, and I always put it into perspective like this: Nobody died. Nobody is sick. This can be repaired without refinancing the house. Breathe, breathe, breathe. . . . . . . Sorry to see this my friend, and remember the chant, "This too shall pass. . . . .";) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawson4450 Posted October 23, 2009 Author Share Posted October 23, 2009 yeah but i think i am more annoyed that it happened right after i got the entire truck fixed and painted . but i also found two dings in the side of the truck from butt heads also just stupid lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whiterp199 Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Sorry to hear it. It is a shame whoever did it did not man up and take some responsibility for their mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Well, here's a story for ya. My son had just bought his first new car..........a Dodge Neon. Black. Nothing fancy, but practical. Calls me up from work one day, super upset, saying "dad, someone hit my car at work in the parking lot. There's a huge dent and white paint scratches all over the side." So he called the police, they came and took pictures, filed it as a hit and run. He got the car fixed and all was good till the following spring. I was out cutting the grass around the white basketball post beside the driveway when I notice black paint about 3 feet up. Guess what it was? Yep. The dummy had backed up, hit the basketball pole, and never even knew he did it. :lolsmack: No chance you did the same thing now is there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70'sChevyGirl Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Is it plastic??? If so, try heating the dent up with a hot blow dryer and then try to pop it out from the inside-gently. Use a rubber mallet if you have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opeth Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Ah man.... I hate to see that. I'm sorry. I just got my car back today from having it repaired and repainted too due to some jerk who broke my spoiler. I was furious too. But Adam is totally right. It can be fixed, getting angry never helps anything. Yes you are entitled to be upset, just dont dwell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawson4450 Posted October 23, 2009 Author Share Posted October 23, 2009 no its metal so cant fix it that way and no trust me I am really careful about backing up lol and i know it can be fixed its just a pain to have to fix it again after just getting it back lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
