lil help

Yea, so a while ago a SUV decided to open their big *** door into my poor pro. There was a huge dent in it, but I removed most of it with a 3 dollar suction cup from Autozone. I was surprised the majority of it came out, but there's still a bit left that refuses to come out. I want to remove the door panel and try to tap it out from the inside. My q is, is this a practical idea? How hard is it to remove? I tried a search with no luck. Thanks in advance.

Those have potential to take paint off/ make new dents, but thanks for the idea.

Just let the pros handle it.

For $75 or so, you can have a "dent wizard" guy come to your house, work, etc. - and get the ding out. It'll be professional, and should look perfect.

I would seriously recommend against trying this yourself. YOu do not have the proper tools. And, you have a good chance of causing more damage, and then the dent wizard guys might not be an option. For example - if you mistakenly crack or chip the paint, it now must be handled by a body shop, and the cost will triple or quadruple.

Some things are always better left to the pros.

I had a foul ball hit the hood of my truck. On a real hot day I took some dry ice and set in the dent and out came the dent.
