My Baby is damaged goods.

Man.. at least it's steel. You'd be amazed what a good PDR guy can get out. Sorry that happened.

I door dinged my new truck with my old truck.. talk about being disappointed.. something like this is understandable. Doing it to myself I couldn't sleep. Got it fixed like it never happened.

Maybe my old truck was jealous and pushed its door from my hand

Ive got one PDR guy who says he can do it (based on photo only) and i have a body shop who say they can do it but will "have" to paint the whole panel. I'm not sure why they would want to paint it. Another PDR shop wants to see it first. I think most have concerns about what the paint will do when they push it back out :/

You'll be fine. You'd be amazed at the flex.. most the paints are water based now and extremely flexible. Ive seen way worse than this come out. They use a heat gun on it while working it. The best thing is there is no crease. That where the paint issues come. Not a soft dome like that. Whatever you do use painting as an absolute last case scenario. If they have to don't have them re color the whole bed. They could do a small blend there of color and clear it. That color is as impossible to match as they get. You'd wind up with half the truck repainted.

Just find a good dent guy. DO a LOT of research online. I found a guy in Dallas and I wouldn't hesitate using him or recommending him. Also gives you a chance to make a relationship. Nice to have one in your phone book. Never know when some idiot will park next to you.

Good luck

While it sucks for sure, your kids are forever, not the truck.
My w/e mishap did not involve my truck, but did involve totaling my John Deere

Was picking my daughter up from school. Backing out and one of the extended mirrors on a bus behind me got me. Was watching the bumper in the cam not the mirrors :/

Thanks. Made me realize I've been relying on the 360 cameras a bit too much!
