A few years ago I was getting out of my car, opened the door and the door stopped at the normal detent. As I turned to get my bag on the passenger seat the wind picked up, caught my door and opened it right into the car next to me.
This was like something out of a movie.
At the time the other car was a six year old Toyota with little scratches and dings on several panels. The mark my car door left didn't remove any paint, just left a 2'' dent.
I contacted the person and said I would pay for a paintless dent removal, $150, because I've have good luck with this service with my own car and that is the path I would take if her car were mine.
She agreed.
When I called to see how the repair went she told me the guy got most of it taken care of but she was not completely satisfied and wanted the door repainted. Repainting the door would have been $5-600 and would have made it the best looking panel on the car.
I politely declined to go farther then what we originally agreed to even though the dentless repair may not have been absolutely perfect.
Was I right, was I wrong?
There is something about these situations that are inherently hard to resolve.
I'd enjoy hearing others experiences with this type of problem.
