Is there no way you could pop those out on your own with some body tools?

They sell some tools at hardware stores for like 15 bucks. I bet if you could get behind the door panel, and behind the dent, you could put a block on the outside of the door so it won't go to far out and you can hit it with a hammer or something on the back side. It might crack the paint but it would be way cheaper to respray it then 600 dollars.

gotten behind the pannel. to much metal in the way. could barley fit my hand at the dent. i was looking at the Billy mays thing. the dent king or something. that could probably get the one at the handle.

got my price quote for my dents i got the other day. $661 total. **** sucks.

also new video while there was a little light out.
YouTube - walk around the HEMI

Is this for both sides? You mentioned damage on the passenger side also. If so that is a very good price. I would hate to tell anyone what I have spent on paint and I have never had any damage. Body shops are like hookers, you never know if it was worth it until your all finished..

If you going to play hard and it's likely to incur more damage, it makes little sense to repair the body at this point. Good luck..

yea. i have primer on it and a little bit of touch up paint so it wont rust. sooner or later there be more dents i guess. maybe i might get hit in the door. get a new one or something lol. ive been dreaming of a lift for a while know. just hadnt had the money to do it. all ive done is level it, but i want it much higher.
