What is directly behind the door skin? Does this look like it's able to be popped out from the opposite side?

The edge of the door is fine. So is the horizontal edge underneath the door handle.

PDR guys can work wonders, a good shop/guy will fix that no problem. Ive seen them fix worse. Its definitly worth a shot, there might be a slight risk of the paint chipping where the metal is creased but go to a good reputable shop.

look in the phone book for Dent Wizard. they are amazing. they will remove any dent (within reason) for $100.
I found a place, apparently I go there, they look at it, then make an appointment with Dent Wizard people to come fix it.

Sadly, the traffic around that place is horrendous around this time so I'll have to go tomorrow :(

Thanks :)

That's why I think it isn't that bad, nothing seems creased. It looks pretty round. It was hard to get a pic showing the extent of the damage but that angle was best since it showed the reflection of the lines.

Thanks you guys.

that will be sweet if they can just pop it out w/o having to take the panel off or repaint it. good luck with that!!!! i hope its going to work out for ya!

not going to pop out with that up and down crease in the sheet metal not that close to the edge anyway , NO WAY , get a new door skin put on it
It doesn't look like a crease to me, but I could be wrong
:shrug:

I called a Ford dealer, they said $417 for ONE door skin :eek: WTF!!!!
Where can they be gotten for cheaper? That is insane.

Does it look creased? :scratch: It may not pop out perfect, but it's a 5 year old car, I can live with a little dent versus this bigger one... It's hard to get a good pic to show the depth. Regardless, I'll go talk to the Dent Wizard rep people tomorrow, see what they recommend...

just get ahold of this guy and get it done through his insurance company if u get some bad news after u go visit those ppl tomorrow. take it to the shop of ur choice too if it needs a new door skin/paint.
