So, I've been having to park my car in the driveway this week due to some work being done in the garage. To make a long story short, when I went to get in the car this afternoon.. I saw 4 rocks on the side of my car. Funny, I thought. The rocks were 10 feet down the driveway. As I get out of my car at work, I go to the passenger door to get my work shit out from the back and front seat. Well, as I'm changing my shoes, I look up to check out the water beading on the freshly waxed EP. What do I see? THREE FUCKING DINGS/DENTS. Two of them with some paint missing. Those fucking tyrannical neighborhood kids got me friends :( Anyway, I basically started flipping out and going nuts because this is just ugly. What do I do?? :( They are all on the passenger quarter panel. My insurance deductable is $500. Surely I'd just end up losing a ton of money out of pocket since it'd probably be less than $500 to fix anyway. They are pretty close together. There's been some mixed reviews about ding king, could I at least pull it out with that until I can get some real PDR done? I have 3 other dings around the car and I'd just get it all done probably around the end of the year or before I move. Anybody knwo of any good shops in Chicago that can hook a brotha up? I'm flippin out..

Yeah man people are ruthless. I park in the very last spot usually, the absolute farthest one. I come out and there's always this beater ass like 85 escort station wagon parked next to me. I got dings the first week of owning it working at the mall during a snow storm. The whole rules of parking went out the window. People were triple and quadruple parked. I had fun watching cars get towed all afternoon though :D

hey if you want....we could buy the ding king together

and ship it back and forth when needed, or ill pay you a little to let me use it or something.

ive got this crazy dent and its driving me nuts, i would rather try a 20 dollar option before i have dentpro take it out for 80.

Wanna split it? They've got the one for like 10 bucks more that comes with a ton of glue. We'll figure out how many dents and see how much of the glue we need. I'd be interested, but I think the person that keeps it for good should pay a titch more to balance the fact that they just have to go and buy glue. Unless you want to keep shipping, I'm cool with that haha. Or like you said.. pay a little bit for the use. Whatever cuts the cost and lets me try to pull the dings and you get yours out before dropping hundreds (I've got multiple panels to be done).
I want to know how their money back guarantee works...

basically its 40 ish bucks shipped. and since you have a buttload more dents than i do, maybe ill let you keep it?



actually, it wouldnt be a bad idea to get a couple members in on this. like...split the cost between 4 people...and the person that keeps it pay a "titch" more. that way we dont have to all go buy the same product a bunch of times.

Damn, sorry to hear that man :(

Something similar happened to TravTrav only a few days ago. Instead, he awoke to a shattered passenger side headlight and banged up fender :( It was a hit-and-run in the middle of the night...

After a few days + $550 later, it should be back to good as new though :rolleyes:

I'm just looking to make it less noticeable until i have the funds for PDR, which is after my tuition is paid, which is around the end of the year.
