Help with dent on m6

Has anyone come across a dent on the bend side like in the pictures? This is what I get for trying to get front parking. Given the location of it, can this be fixed by some DIY method or is it best to get done professionally?

Thanks!

You cannot DIY that - unless you already have body and paint skills. I am fairly certain that cannot be fixed with paintless dent repair (PDR) because it is on the crease where the metal is much harder to work, but you could ask a PDR place. Failing that, the dent will need to be repaired, spot painted and clear applied on the whole door. $500+ for a good job. PDR, if it can be done, would be $100ish.

That's what I was afraid of. Just my luck. I'll take it to a shop and get it professionally done. Thanks.

If the paint has cracked, your going to need that section repainted and blended in. If 8ts not cracked, a skilled pdr can get that out. First picture looks like the paint was cracked. I went through something like that on my 5 series. Windy day and some lady's kid opened his back door carelessly and dented the car. Cost $500 to get done.

agree, if no paint damage, PDR can take it out easily without messing with paint. same exact thing happen to us (dent on the crease) and it cost about $250 to fix in Arizona. took about a hr and we cant even find the dent anymore
