Ding removal :(

    Bah, some gobsh1te managed to ding my door yesterday afternoon in the Irish Life Mall car park - from the height of it, it looks like the bottom corner of an SUV rear door (which would have a reasonably sharp corner of it due to the shape for the wheel arch) or perhaps something heavy with a sharp corner (laptop bag, briefcase) carried over a shoulder at waist level managed to bang against it.

    Either way, there's a ding in the door. I'll attach a photo later (I can't seem to get a good image of it now, it was too dull yesterday evening when I got home and now it's too bright (the door basically acts like a mirror so the image in the camera isn't clear).

    It is very small, but noticeable when I look sidelong onto the car. Is something like that repairable (perhaps some kind of suction / reverse pressure type dealio). It's not like it needs to be panel beaten or anything.

    In the grand scheme of things, it's tiny, but it bugs the crap out of me and if I could get it repaired for a reasonable amount of money I'd consider it, so any suggestions welcome (I'm based in Dublin 3, so Northside / city centre places would be best).

    I dowt a suction cup would fix it unless its a pressure dent .
    There is a a painless dent removal system
    I got a kit for it but tbh I couldent manage it .
    I had to do it oldschool with filler etc .
    There's videos on YouTube about the paintless thing .

    No chance the culprit let their details?

    In any case, if there is no paint damage, Paintless Dent Removal (PDR) could be an option for you. Not exactly D3 but I have used these guys before and they did a cracking job http://quickdent.info/

    They were based in Tallaght but seem to have moved to Dolphins Barn.

    Originally quoted me 90 for 3 small dents but let me off with 75 in the end I think.
