So the missus and I went to go watch In Time (decent movie btw) and I came out and someone backed into my car. It smacked the fender and the bumper just a little, but enough to shift the fender into the door, so now I can barely open the door.

I took my screwdriver and pried it out a little, but the door still doesn't open. So I'm looking at some advice for a small fix since I'm limited on tools. Plus I'll have to open the door somehow to replace the fender lol.

Sorry guys I'm really upset, just needed to vent and a little help.

Thanks

Sorry about the mishap. I know it sucks and what makes it worse its a Lexus SC. At least you wasn't in an accident or worse its totalled. Post pictures up asap to let us further access the damage. Nice place to vent. :-)

Thanks, I ended up chipping the door a little

I tried to pry the fender out a little, so the door opens a little, but not enough for my fat *** to squeeze in lol. It's a bit late, but I'll shoot some pics tomorrow.

Same thing happened to me, about chipping the paint on the driver's door, I just used touch up paint to hide it and it's all good. Although, you still need to find a way to open the door to be able to access the screws for the fender behind it. Good luck.

Any cameras by where you parked? Hit and run could land you some solid scooch to touch that baby up

I hate to see stuff like this happen. The guy didn't leave a note or anything with his information?

Probably not, Kira. Some people really just don't believe in Car-ma.

Sorry to hear about it, bro. Any pics so we can see the full extent of the damage? These doors have a mind of their own sometimes (maybe it's that crazy Japanese hinge system that's either a work of art or insanity.)

It's crap like this that makes me park out in car jack territory and hoof it in. Makes me angry... Grrr...

Meh, got it fixed, found a new fender, but it wasn't perfect like my old one

The front of the door skin got knocked in a little bit, but some help from a slide hammer fixed it up.

It's all good now, minus the small chips on the door when I tried to pry on it to get my door opened. Oh well, it needed paint anyway lol

Someone hit my car in my work parking lot which is pathetic because its my store and I park where customers shouldn't be parking in the first place. Crushed in the door. Cost me close to $1000 to repair after buying a door, shipping it, having that door crushed in shipping, buying another door having, to drive to Ct and back for the door, getting it back and having it end up being resrpayed poorly so I needed to get it painted all over again
