Did you notice anyone bump or lean on my car during the day. I have a small dent and associated minor scratches on my passenger side near my fuel filler lid. Its buggin the cr ap outta me cos its the ONLY blemish down that side of the car, the scratches will buff out (I'll do that this arvo, but I can't buff the dent out).
I'm thinking the tent structure we had could have blown over to that side and touched the car slightly, any other ideas???

i dont think it was the tent cause i thought we got hold of it before the wind picked up and lifted it over the mini, but i could be wrong and i know how you feel about scratches and dents on your car. my had them a month after i bought it.

yeah, i cant remember anyone going down that side of your car, and the tent was definately under control before the huge gust of wind.

depending on how old the paint is there are people who massage the panel and get small dents out without damaging the paint. Might be worth a try

i dont know wether you guys have them up ther ebut there called the dint doctor and they just massage and suck the panels out works a treat for little pimples and stuff, thier called paintless dit removal or some crap like that, give them ago nromally around 60bucks a dint but they come up a treat!

I had a look on sunday and i doubt the dent doctor would be able to fix it. the paint has been scratched so will need to be sprayed and im not sure if those guys would be able to match that awesome colour. If you didnt know it was there and wernt looking for dents you wouldnt notice it. But once you know its there you can pick it up easily.

No harm in asking though I suppose..

You sure it wasn't someone that accidentally knocked over one of the sub stands holding up the power cable "chain"? As I recall you had that side of your car chained off next to Kevlar's Pulsar so I would expect someone has tripped over the chain. I know I tripped on one but it wasn't by your car.

I don't think there was a poll/stand in the middle of our cars.
