I hate to see this kind of things, it infuriates me when people damages other people's things, like cars, just because... I just hope one day I get the pleasure of finding someone in the act....

Good luck with the repair, I hope you can fix it with the PDR

Parking far could be just as bad. Less people around the area to see somoene is in the act of damaging your car. Probably go somewhere more in the middle.

I've read through the comments and most of the people complain about the methods not working. I don't know how I'll feel using a home remedy solution that might wreck the paint just to save a few bucks.

If you do not have experience with dent repair, NEVER try a do it yourself on a flat panel like a roof or hood. Why do MORE damage and make it non repairable? I have a friend that does PDR and he tells me that very often people bring him cars as a last resort AFTER they have stretched the metal beyond repair.

DIY, buyer beware. It sucks that people vandalize the way they do. Sorry.

1. Bad Idea to take up 2 stalls, just take the corner one and park to the far side of it.

2. Unfortunately I think he hit the most expensive place on your car for PDR or repair... I had some hail damage from a storm 3 weeks ago, finally got it fixed (Looks unbelievebley good, these guys did an amazing job). When I got the bill they charged $300 to remove the headliner, so It couldnt be easy... here is a copy of the reciept for proof.

Good luck, and watch out for haters... they are everywhere..
