I just noticed these scratches on my brand-new RAV4 PHEV. I think this is my own fault for trying to stretch the charging cable too much and its extension “ball” rubbing against the back side (near the fuel cap and below the taillight).
Should I just repair it at the body shop or try DIY to buff it out?
The photos are after spraying copious amounts of water (no soap).
First post ever, so please go easy on me 🍌 I don’t know shit about cars, so I came to the one place that does. It’s my first car dent too.
Chevy Trax. Bad day, I pulled out too fast and caught the rear door on a Jeep with huge wheels, heard the noise and kept driving like an idiot. The second noise was the back door getting rolled over. Jeep was fine, my car wasn’t, and now I check for those wheels every time, because we don’t have them where I’m from.
A mobile dent guy looked at it and offered to do it. Door still opens. Before I tell him yes, what should I be asking, and what would make you walk away from a job like this?
Thank you, dear redditors <3
I’m so sad and probably can’t add to replace it. Does this look like it’d be considered a total loss or is this fixable?
