I put this door ding in my 2016 Hellcat myself so I cant blame anyone else. Decided to see if I could make it better, and while I can still find the spot and there is a tiny dimple, I don't feel like i need to throw up every time I walk past. Here's a before and after photo. I bought the paint less dent repair kit off of Amazon

Just ordered the 75 pc kit, with 7 cars I have lots of candidates to practice on if I ever need to use on my cat. Funny thing, out of the 7 cars 3 are mine and are the only 3 that don’t have any dents in them. Luck or ????

Watched a Youtube video, only thing I can add is don't try to put too much pressure on it. The glue popped loose twice, and I had to remove the glue and reattach, but each time it pulled it out a little more. All and all I'm pleased for $49 investment.

Awesome.... years and years ago I took a toilet plunger from a convenience store bathroom and removed a dent in my right rear quarter panel. lol, should have seen the guys face. Should have also seen the face of the guy that did it.

Looks like a comparison of two different color cars and a lot of negative reviews on Amazon.

I'll have to give this a try sometime. I have a kit called "Pops A Dent" that is a complete waste of time. Glue never held even after careful prep. I think it was purchased off an infomercial years ago so lesson learned. This kit looks a lot better. Thanks for posting.

Try gas station toilet plunger; no shipping, no expense, even if it's dirty, it'll wash right off. 100% money back guarantee

Worth a shot for $50. Paintless dent repair would be at least $200.

Dent wizard charges about a $100 to fix a ding but thats as long as ur ding isnt on the double panel otherwise no kit u buy is gonna help and as long as the dent isnt creased u can usually fix it urself.

I got my entire car PDR for $300 best money ever spent. Put a big ding in the door with my creeper falling on it. Dents in the top of the front fenders from elbows from taking supercharger off and on. “Torque” waves in rear qps. Small ding in roof from a rock. Straight as an arrow now. A good PDR person is worth their weight in gold

I had a really F-ed up dent on the pillar of one of my Hellcats a few years back. This dude spent like 45 minutes on it and it came out so mint I was shocked! I gave the guy a $200 tip cause it looked so mint after I couldnt believe it! So yea I agree them dudes are worth their weight in gold.
