Angry Paintless dent removal? [pics]

Ok, so this is a long shot... cops are on the way to my place right now, but I'm wondering what this is gonna cost me.

Someone kicked in my car door last night, no idea who. Any chance this can be fixed with paintless dent removal?

First things first, I'm gonna find the bastard who left his shoe print there.

That sucks, better off replacing the door skin and spraying/blending that side!

I wouldn't rule out PDR. I would let a guy giving it a try. Look at the job a forum member did on this car.

God damn that sucks. Maybe whoever did it passes the car often. Leave a note on the car that asks them to meet you in person...

I wouldn't rule out PDR completely. It's not the size of the dent that scares me, it's the several creases. If it can be pushed out 90% with one good push, then the rest can probably be cleaned up. I would find a good PDR person in your area, pay them to at least give it a shot.

THanks guys...

I'm not sure if it matters much now. After the cops and CSI left, the footprint they left was wiped off and my car was keyed. I didnt even **** anyone off, so wtf.

What? The car was keyed after the dent? After the cops left, the car got keyed? Where at? Same spot? Sorry for all the Q's. That is just crazy.

I'll forward this to my dent tech and we'll see if there's anything that can be done. But since you said it was keyed, that's now a body shop issue. If you'd like, drop by our studio on Monday and I'll be happy to take a look. We're not too far away from you.

Wow. That's terrible. So sorry to hear that. What's wrong with people? Only a coward would destroy personal property instead of confronting the person, if they had an issue. I'd definitely leave a note...or maybe watch the car from a distance for a while, see if I could catch them. I wouldn't fix it too soon, or else they may do it again.

time to get insurance involved.

they will come back if you dont find them. its likely your coworker or neighbor. i would call the cops again and have them look seriously into this. install floor lights and camera if it's your home.

Get a game camera. Motion sensing and infrared. Cool toy and you can get them for under $100. Set it up pointing to your car it will take pictures or video night or day.
