Door Ding Help

I have a very very small ding on my rear fender right over the wheel well. I mean, it's tiny. Does anyone know if it's possible to access this area? It's right on the ridge so it cannot be glue-pulled. I was thinking of trying to find a way to go through the trunk somewhere...

Argh!!! Sorry! I hired ding removal guy for zhp and he did miracles on roof ding without going underneath. I think better question might be posting your area and asking for recommendations of where to go get it checked out. Again sorry!!

I used this guy and he did great work. I put his card in the picture. Maybe you can email him a picture and ask. He
s in San Diego though.

Ya, I have two people who have performed miracles for me and one said impossible and one said it could be done if you went through the trunk - but I guess I'm just not sure how to get access to it.

Just guessing here, but if you remove the rear seats and that side back-bolster along with the side "door" card a PDR guy may be able to access through there. I agree, those guys are magicians!!

That doesnt even look like a bad spot to have a ding....that should be a $75 fix at most.

My PDR guy was able to remove the dent by going through the holes from the tail light. I removed it to give him access and voila....some PDR guys are better than others.
