Bad way to start the weekend

[Dillins40]

Went out to the local shopping center today and thought it was going to be a decent weekend until I returned to my car! God knows how but I found dents on the passenger front and rear side of the door.



The picture doesn't do it justice as its pretty bad, but if you can see its under the door handles and under the wing mirror...

Could these be fixed or would different doors need to be bought?

posted in the wrong section...today is not my day

Well that sucks the good news is that parts are pretty cheap, not sure if you could perhaps pull the dents out or even try and fill and paint?

If you thought your day was not bad enough already, Dogbook is going to kill you when he sees this




Bummer about the car

It looks about right for a shopping trolley front on into the car.

Was it in a food shopping car park or somewhere that uses trolleys? Most car parks have CCTV so may be worth pursuing before it gets overwritten.

Sorry to hear that, makes you wonder how some of these things happen...

From the look of it, i would think they could be 'pushed' out, i had a ding on the roof of mine which was able to be totally removed, with the help of a guy i found who was superb, did take him an hour or 2, but results were superb. And
much better than getting the roof filled/ re-sprayed.

These are the guys, im pretty sure they had someone in the north, will try to find their details if youre interested,,

Other way round is to find a breaker with a door locally in the same colour, or try your hand at filling/spraying?

Yeah there was also trolleys and what not within the car park, that could it, I'll speak with the manager today and see if they can find my car.

Dogbook... Apologies in advance

What a shame . I always park my Volvo well away from the entrance to supermarkets to avoid this type of thing. However I would be surprised if the store will show you the CCTV without involving the Police (who I doubt would investigate anyway).

Good thing I hold a warrant card

Hmmm, not sure about the trolley theory...It' that invisible motorcyclist again; Unless we have a serial kerbstone on the rampage here. Maybe the same one that trashed zebs motor...



(I really hope 'Dillons40' has a sense of humour and can forgive me for hijacking his thread. Sorry 'D40' I'd be miffed too if someone damaged my car in the car park, hope you get it resolved..)
