Need paint/ding repair...damn punks

[AllBlkdOut07]

Had to take my truck to work today since my g/f needed her car which is also my DD. Leaving lovely Newark, sitting at a red light literally one block from the Highway and I hear something pelt my truck..wtf Almost sounded like it hit the roof, figured someone tossed something over the overpass...then I hear another one that's not as pronounced. Get out of the truck real quick, take a look around and see nothing. A woman 3 cars in front of me also gets out of her car to take a look around. So I wasn't the only one imagining this.

Get home take a closer inspection of my dirty truck and notice a decent sized ding right under the mirror on the passenger side on the door. Cleaned up the area and took a few pics. The paint chipped off and there is a dime sized ding. I'm guessing some punks with a pellet gun were shooting as us? That's all I can think of. Can't find the second one yet.

The scratch I can fill in carefully, but the ding pisses me off and sticks out a lot more since the door is 100% void of any dings, I rarely take this truck anywhere, and no way it's a door ding being up so high, plus it looks fresh.

So, can dent wizard remove the ding then I can try and repair the chipped paint? I purposely positioned the ding one of these shots against the tinted window of my Saturn to try and show the ding depression, it's hard to photograph dings well..oh and don't you just love the GM orange peel?.

You can clearly see the chipped paint on this shot.

That sucks 'Berto,all the time and $ you've put into your truck.Something wrong with the pics,they're blurry.Is it me or are all of you seeing this?

They're blurry cause that's the orange peel in the paint from the factory, did I mention GM paint sucks?

So, that's looking at my passenger door with the reflection of the other cars in the driveway parked next to it. The ding/chip is near the center of the pic..I know at first it's hard to discern wtf you are looking at, sorry.

ALL paint sucks these days. Not just GM's.

Although mine is fine, maybe because it was made in Mexico?

Dam, thats fukced up! Them lil punks need to be stomped !

I would call paintless dent removal places in your area and ask them about it.

 

[AllBlkdOut07]

Yeah, that's what I'm going to do, although I recall hearing they won't or can't do much if paint is chipped and/or cracked? I mean, I understand it will be a two part repair process.

I know there is nothing they can do about the paint, but they should be able to get the ding out. But then again, if you it will have to be repainted anyways, why not just do everything at the body shop? Or did you just want the dent removed and try to touch up the paint with some scratch fix/touch up paint?
