Booooooo.... door dings blow...

Someone recommended the following to me but I never actually used them since I ended up getting a whole new bumper.
Hope you find a solution soon though!
sorry to hear about your ding...
and on a 2018.

Awesome. I'll give them a try.

It's small ding about 2 inches long but not very deep. Enough to see at an angle. I've seen alot of big dings get repaired...I hope this isn't too small where he can't repair. Cross my fingers.

Sorry to hear that, dings suck.

Before and after pictures of the repair would be awesome to see.

Sorry, it took me awhile to post back my results. I did end up using Dent Solutions NW and he did an amazing job. I was skeptical at first if he would be able to fix my dent because my was more like a crease than a dent and it was on the rounded surface of the door but when I went in for a quote he was working on a Porsche 911 Turbo and that pretty much wiped my concerns away...haha! He was using a small hammer and a metal stick rounded at the bottom and hammering away at this Porsche 911 Turbo....I was like WTF. But he did the job perfectly and paintless. He left no traces of the dent. I tried looking for it at every possible angle and different lighting...nothing. The man is a magician!

Below are some before and after pics of my 5 inch crease/dent.

I highly recommended this guy for any dent repair. He showed me other cars he has lined up for work like BMW i8 and Tesla. I don't know how he does it but he gets the job done and perfectly.

Weird. It was showing when I posted. Ok, I tried a different method. Hopefully it shows up now.

Not cheap. Total $460

$150 for 1st inch
$50 per additional inch (my was 5 inches)
20% charge because there's a brace on the BMW doors which makes it more difficult to repair.
