I have a car park dent on my passenger side door by some idiot
its the size of a 50p piece and it looks bad when the sun is shining on it as its the only dent I have on the door so sticks out like a sore thumb. So I was wondering if a company would be able to pull it out or would it have to be filled and sprayed over by a bodyshop.
Also what sort of price would I be looking at paying, and can anyone recommend a decent company to take it out near the west midlands.

One of those Dentmaster/Scratches'n'Scuffs sort of firms can usually tease them out by inserting tools down behind the glass. Had a couple done on mine, only difficult bit is if they're over a seem or strengthening beam etc. Then it's a fill and spray job. Post a request in Midlands and someone is sure to recommend someone local to you.

Thanks mate
It **** me off when I saw it, I always park away from everybody else, and if there are any spaces I try to park in the disabled spots or the parents with kids spots you get at the supermarkets

I don't condone the use of disabled bays, but P&C are fair game. I always park well away and use the bay 2nd from an end, positioning the car to make the end space small and less useable, and thus the space on the other side is that bit further away too

A frigging people carrier with 15 kids has squeezed in the end gap

And, yes, another few dents are added to my collection!!

Timing can help. I always aim to arrive at 2.50pm, just as Mummy is leaving to pick up Tarquin and Joshua from school. Full shop in under 20 mins and away before they've finished swapping recipes and ASBO tales whilst blocking every suburban street in the land. If you park at least 50yds beyond the bulk of the already parked cars you should be OK, if the place you go has a suitable sized car park for its capacity
I haven't returned to find anyone next to me in over 2 years using my technique
Sad that I have to be so **** though. Maybe Pete could write an humerous anecdote about **** Scooby parking

I'll remember that one, cheers
Also what sort of price would I be looking at paying, and can anyone recommend a decent company to take it out near the west midlands.
pity your not in the Manchester area, but if the paint isnt broken it should come out mate at a cost of around £40
