Default Not what i wanted to wake up to;(

Had really strong winds last night and one of the big trash barrels must have slammed into my car!



In the process of figuring out a way to pop the dents out. Anyone have any experience with the one near the window? Fender I figure I can just pop off and pop it back out.

Damn, you mean though big plastic ones? It looks like the only thing that could have caused that much damage is massive metal ones.

Sucks man. I hope you're able to fix it for cheap.

It's an 02 WRX. It's totaled.

PS: You're screwed on the a-pillar one.

Called the insurance company. I have a $300 deductible. So it should be all fixed hopefully soon. Is the pillar a hard dent to remove?

It requires either a stud welder or drilling holes in it and using heat and a slide hammer and lots of time and patience to get it right. If it is multi layered it may require cutting out and welding in new material

His wheels weren't turned properly towards the curb, so someone wedged his rear bumper into the tire so if it popped out of gear, or the e brake let loose, it wouldn't roll off.

What do you think happened

No amount of buffing??....Sucks op. Our big arse plastic can blew over the other night. Those gimormous cans feel like they can do some real damage.

Lucky, I got no such note. No witnesses either despite parking in front of a 7/11.

Not to sound whatever but I would just get PDR on the fender and call it a day. Should be <$100. No point in your insurance going up. If it was a new car and you were planning on selling it then it would be a different story. Who knows, maybe someone will hit you there and it ends up getting fixed on somebody else's dollar. YMMV
