A few years ago, we had this done by 'Dent Wizard'. They removed numerous small to medium sized dents, and the end result was perfect. No evidence that the dents were ever there, and no damage to the paint. All dent removal was done from the exterior surface only, so it was pretty amazing.

Dent Wizard is a franchise and the skill levels of the mechanics tend to vary quite a bit.

I don't think a PDR guy can take that one out. Creases in the metal under the handle, being right on the door edges and damaged paint are tough. Might be able to make it less but not un-noticeable.

Yeah, I figure it would be tough. I have a set of PDR tools but not very experienced with using them. The alternative is new door or body work. Since its a 2002, I figure it does not have to be perfect at this point.
