Default xB got dented!!!

I came out of work today and went to get in my xB and saw a few dents and whatnot on my driver's side rear door. Looks like bike handle bars like someone fell scrapped it a little an inch from that dented it and another 2 inches dented it again and. Also, some of them are dents which are popped out not in or the denting itself pushed it out too maybe.. Myself and my neighbor tried poping them out, no luck. He knows a guy can fix it for about $150... I have full coverage though, not sure if property damage has deductable, don't think so, might not want to deal with insurance company though for just this.

It SUCKS!! I think it was a drunk guy on a bike because the lot behind my work was empty all day pretty much only my car behind the store... Also there was a Smirnoff bottle that wasn't there thats why I think it was drunk bicycler.

don't get dent king...


Go to a dent specialist like Dent Wizard....they'll fix them the right way. They rub the dents out from the inside...

leave a full bottle of smirnoff near your car and keep a look out. When he finds the bottle and passes out, check the bike for paint.

Sorry to hear that, I know hot it feels. My wife decided to put a shopping cart into hersa herself It is small and hopefully easily fixed

Yeah, I dinged my door on Friday. Total rookie move into an old-___ lightpost in Oakland. Luckily I still had my hand on it or it could've been much worse.

I think I can get to it if I pull the door panel...

Default Paint Code?

Well, here's the sad thing... This was my LAST day at that place of work, theya re moving me now... Figures it just had to happen couldn't have a peaceful departure. So beating up homless guys with bikes in another city might not do any good, well it might make me feel better. I do like the bait and attack plan though.

Ok, I think the paint code is 068 for Polar White, I ran it on Paintscratch.com or some site... Uhm, I'd guess any shop I'd go to would be able to find out for sure. I think in my door it says 068 aswell. It's that easy you'd just go somewhere and ask for 068? If I get this detailer next door to me's friend to do it I'd need to tell him what to get.
