Evening guys,
A few months back some dip-sh*t went into the side of my drivers door. He was an old git and wasn't all there. I got the panel fixed under an insurance job as it was dented and badly scuffed. The insurer's preffered repairer was Nationwide Crash Repair (NCR). They repaired it to a very good standard, however a couple of months later I had the door kicked (minor domestic) lol. This caused a slight dent in the door so got a local dent firm to come out and fix it.
All was well, until I washed the car and I applied a bit of pressure, as you do when you clean the car and the dent went back in again! So got another guy out to undo the dent again.
Washed the car today, and you guessed it, the dent went bak in again.
I cannot continue with this - I need it sorted!
The panel is now pretty "flimsy" i.e. if I use my fingers and push on the panel it warps if you get my drift - it is certainly not as strong as the original door on the other side.
Question: What do you suggest I do 'cos I don't fancy getting a dent guy back out because I know it will just happen again.
Do Ford repair panels or will it have to be a new door, knowing ford. And I know how much a new door will cost with the dealers?
Or should I find a local bodyshop repairer who can just put another new panel on? Any ideas on price?
Although I would prefer Ford to do the work as I trust their workmanship!
Hope you can help guys & gals.
(A fed up) Will.
