Bow to the dent removal gods...

E90 Enthusiast · 11-17-2005, 10:19 PM

So it felt like November for the first time here in Missouri earlier this week when this cold-ass front moved through with wind gusting from the north and west at close to 40 mph.

As I was getting out of my car on Tuesday, having just returned to work from lunch, the @(#%^&!)@$# wind takes the door out of my hand and SLAMS it into the side view mirror of the car next to me :mad:

No damage to the (apparently) titanium clad side mirror of the other car, but it left a dent in my door about 2 inches long. Again, thinking of it, I must

But, $55 later, I am once again dent-free. There is absolutely no trace at all that there ever even was a dent. You gotta love that pop-a-dent technology. :rocks:

Hmm, never heard that one before...

Is that the thing advertised on TV about two years ago? What's the brand and where did you get it?

No, I took it to one of the professional dent removal shops here. I thought $55 seemed very reasonable, and it only took 30 minutes and no appointment.

I don't know about the TV advertised thing, although it sounds intriguing...

DAMN! $55 is cheap. Considering how much pain and agony a two inch dent is capable of producing. I'm glad it went well.

I hate the wind! One time in my old Camry, I was opening the door on a very windy day when all of a sudden, the wind blew my door wide open and past it's "open threshold" point. Needless to say, the hinge was broken and I had to tie my door shut in order to drive it to get fixed. Some scary stuff.

At least the other car was there to block your door from flying all the way open and the hinge getting bent.

$55 IS A GOOD DEAL.
