I had my foot on the brake but not enough. My door was slightly open and hit my carport post. The top of my door bent down as it hit the timber post. I can still close the door but pissed off.Does any one know if its easily fixable, I'm hoping so. I'm getting an edit and injectors next Saturday and wanted a clean car, now its clean with a stuffed door!!!!Cheers

Posted 25/04/09 06:43 AM Posted 25/04/09 06:43 AM when you said bent door, I had in my mind bent down the middle. Seeing as its only top corner, as previously said a panel beater should be able to straighten it.
