Auto body repair & detailing: Dented Back Passenger Door, paintless dent repair, auto body repair


Question
Hi Josh,
I basically drove the side of my car into a pole and dented the entire back passenger door inwards. Luckily the door is still completely functioning. I'm VERY low on funds right now, so unless I can get this huge dent fixed for $20 or under, there's no way I can take it in to a body shop.
My friend said that there is a way to unscrew the panel from the door, pop it out yourself, then screw it back into place. Is that feasible for somebody with absolutely no auto body repair experience? If it is, how do I go about doing this?
Thank you for your time,
~Mary

Answer
Mary this is true you can pop it back out all you need to do is open the door and remove the inside door panel the screws are hidden so the best way to find them is to sit at the bottom of the door and look up and you should be able to see most of them after they are removed the panel will need to be pulled upward then reach behind it and unplug any of the wires still attached after that there should be a plastic film over the inside of your door pull it off then you should be able to see the dent from the inside then just push the dent out and reinstall every thing in reverse order.or another option is to take it to a paintless dent repair shop they can usually do it with rods and they only charge around $25 depending on the size
