Angry Door Ding

Got my first door ding It's a light vertical ding on top of the rear fender well. Seems I might be able to push it out somehow by reaching inside the fender well above the tire and poking it out from the inside. Anyone have any success at this?

I had one happen to my car on the rear quarter panel around the wheel well. Anyways it got pushed out probably as best as it could with PDR and the paint is almost wanting to flake, you can kind of see it. It was cleaned up a LOT but it is still there.

Call a professional paintless dent repair expert. They will likely have you fixed up in no time.

I spotted the pdr guy at the dealer as he was leaving and only charged me 30$ to fix the door ding on my car

I have a couple. Does the hot hair dryer and instant C02 Can method work on these? (if you don't know check Youtube).

I just tried it on the one small (nickle sized circle) ding I have on my passenger door. I heated the area gently with a heat gun, then sprayed the liquid CO2 on it. It didn't work. I think that method only works on larger dents. I'm wondering if the dry ice method would work because the area of cooling can be controlled better. The problem with the ding is that the liquid CO2 runs down the door, and cools more than just the dent, which reduces the ability to pop it out I'd think.
