    Not sure how it happened but someone dinged my mom's brand new car and she's pissed. What's the best way to fix this? Beside the dings, some very minor scratches ( not too worried) and maybe a deeper one with the bottom ding.

    Is this a PDR job? or because of the location of the lower ding it'll need to go to a body shop?

    Take it to Ecodent. The lower one might be not perfect, I suspect the metal might be stretched on that one.

    +1 for Ecodentworks. I had one similar to the lower dent, they fixed it to the point where its only faintly visible if you look at it at a certain angle and light.

    Take it wherever you're going to take it before Monday as I think we are potentially getting some hail.

    Been taking my vehicles to Eco Dentworks for years. Brian and Sasha work magic as they have fixed dents on my wife's vehicle that I didn't think could be repaired perfectly.

    We've gotten something similar on a vehicle before. What do you guys reckon it is? Shopping cart?

    The pictures above are likely from a carless person opening their driver's door.

    It's pretty close to crotch height, and, that looks like it might be a dad's...
    Oh shit! It says it's his mom's car. Completely ruined my joke!

    Thanks guys! Ecodent it is.. Car had <400km on it when it happened. Sucks.

    Likely a door but the person must've opened the door really hard to dent it like that... maybe..
