I'm told a good PDR place can do it easily? Its not really even scratched it's just a tiny little puck mark. It's sucks cause its right on the horizon line of the car and it's noticable.

There must be some wise guy running around whackin' our car's. Honestly it was last year I noticed it, walking around my car, I have no idea how it got there.

When I park outside I leave my cover on the car, it must of been a branch or something that hit it over the cover because it's not really scratched up.

Yeah I am pretty positive it's not from body flex. I do however have an ever so slight rippling effect about 10" in front of that, but it is barely noticable. I know that that is from flex and F-body's that have had atleast DR's on it will have em'. I am sure if my car didn't have subframe's it would be noticable.

This dent is definately something wacking it. If I look really close I can see some light scratching in the clear coat. I might just take a ride to a couple body shops around here and see what they say.

Dent wizard can fix that. you will never even know it was there. I had the guy work on my car for about 4 hours. he took out 10 years worth of dents and dings. one was a softball size dent in the rear quarter.

Danvers is kinda a ride for me. If I don't find a shop closer to home I suppose I could take the ride. Atleast I know I have the option.

I got the guy to do it on the side. He came to my house and worked on it in my garage at nite. Cost me 150 and a 12 pack to remove about 12 dents. It is not easy work -- they basically massage out the dent with special tools. time consuming and painful on the hands/fingers.

All my friends with Fbodys have that same exact dent, as well as my own car. It's body flex. Just in this thread alone over 8 people have the same exact dent with the same exact spot. Def. a body flex issue IMO

I had the same thing on my old Z too! I think one may have been my brother dropping his bike on my car too though.
