Today my black vitz got hit by our main gate very badly due to strong wind.Damage(dent and Paint) is shown in the attached pictures. As per my research, following is the most feasible solution
Piece # 1: Door :- Use dry dent removal mechanism and use 'kalam' on the damaged paint
Pros= Genuine paint will remain intact
Cons= kalam will not be smooth/matched and will be quite detectable as damaged paint area is not very small.(Any method to match this????)
Piece # 2: Fender :- Get it painted, since to remove the fender dent 'dry' requires cutting of fender from the bottom . Also the paint damage is quite big for 'kalam' to be used
Pros:- Work will be neat and nicely matched.
Cons= Fender will get the label of 'repainted' thus directly affecting car's resale value.
Any better suggestions for 1 & 2
?
