A big noticeable dent in front of the door handle. Man, why can't people be respectful of other peoples stuff? I mean, this isn't like a small tap, someone slammed their door into mine.
So, how does one go about getting this fixed? I don't imagine a body shop can remove the crease in the door, so does that mean they have to fill it with bondo and paint?
I hate WalMart.

....took out a <b>nasty</b> door ding on my passenger-side door (right by the rub strip). For about $100 the dent is gone and they even buffed-out the scratches. Body shop wanted to respray the door and blend into front fender and rear door for several hundred dollars. Very pleased with the results from the paintless dent place.

who just throw their doors open. The fact that I have an Audi is irrelevant. If I had just bought a new minivan and someone did that, I'd feel the same way. It's just like some people don't take the time to be careful around other people's cars. I go out of my way not to bang into someone elses door, I guess I just wish that others would return the favor.

the name of the dent wizard they use. The best of these guys are often independent and go to the various dealerships on a regular schedule. You can make an appointment for the wizard to come to the location of your choice. Use the dealer only to get the reference. Obviously it will cost you more to get it fixed at a dealer directly, since
they will want a cut. It should cost about $50 to $75 per dent (average price in MD),

Some clueless person let their shopping cart slam into my (2000 miles old at that time) A4, had to repaint the whole trunk... thank goodness it came out OK though!
