Oh bother! Bashed my new baby's backside

Yesterday while reversing in my parents drive I managed to Censored the upper section of the tailgate with a low hanging tree branch that has put a small sharp dent in the outer skin just above the R of the word Range on the tailgate.............................. it isn't really obvious (in fact to those that don't know it's there it's probably invisible!) BUT I know it's there and it sticks out like a sore thumb whenever I look at my lovely and now not so perfect FFRR. Is it worth trying one of those suction devises on it to try and straighten it out or best to put a brave face on it and pretend I cannot see it....... Big Cry It's even rather difficult to get a picture of it , but its about 45/50mm long and 10mm across and pushed in about 1-2mm................... 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

Sad Sorry to hear about your dent Tim

Is it something that a company such as Dentmaster or Autoshine would be able to correct?



A local prestige car dealership near you might be able to recommend a specialist firm Thumbs Up

I think that as it isn't that big and the paint isn't damaged I may be better to live with it until there are some stone chips to fix as well. 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

suckers - forget it, been there - useless.

Dentmaster or similar - up to a saucer size dent as long as there is no crease or cracked paint Thumbs Up used them loads of times - fat L322 off road and branches, gates, cattle, sheep, WOMEN DRIVERS Censored

You have to get it done Tim, every time you get in the car, that dent will always be on your mind... and it's so new too...
