AHH OMG im so ticked off. i just realized an hour ago before i went out that someone dented and scratched my rear driver side door. it looks like someone hit it as they were pulling in or backing out. but it's not my best friend who parks there. so frustrating trying 2 think who would do this. it def. happened recently b/c i washed the car yesterday.

if any of you guys experienced this before, how much does it cost to fix something like this?

350-450 bucks...if professionally done. It also depends how big this scratch is on your car.

ouch

Sorry to hear about that, happened to me once.

Don't sweat it too much and ultimately it costs too much to fix it for what it's worth. It's better to get some touchup paint and touch it up since it cost me 120$ to get my scratches / minor dent out at a place where I know the owner.

I had someone scrap up the driver's side of my bumper on my Escort, apparently when pulling out of a parking spot. Not a week after I had it fixed, someone scraped up the passenger's side of the bumper. Nowadays, I park my P5 in the furthest spot to avoid such a scenario. However, I feel that it is inevitable that it will get hit, dinged, scratch or vandalized (can we say paranoia, heh).

worse news coming ur way. . . earlier i just realized that it was a LOT worse than i thought. the wheel well is dented in a little bit, so now i know that it came from pulling in. also, the scrape/rub went started by the rear side of the bumper so it def. came from there. im reporting it 2 the dean at the school, but i doubt they can do anything about it. . . ahh im so pissed, spring was coming and i was getting ready 2 polish and wax it as soon as the weather got better
