Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

I'm not quite sure what they're referring to as "two layers" as most of the metal on 911 quarters I have run into- figuratively- are accessible all the way from the lockpost to the decklid .

I would recommend talking to the dealer first, and if they do not wish to cover the repair, try the paintless franchises.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Left my car at the Collection on Friday here in Miami for warranty work, was in a hurry and picked it up without looking at the passenger side. Took the car out of the garage on Saturday morning noticed someone opened a door on the rear quarter/flair. Pissed, as I did not see it, otherwise I would have raised hell at the dealer. Unreal how this can happen at a high end dealer. I have searched a few sites and most say paintless dent removel will not work on the quarters as it has two layers of metal. Anyone have any ideas. Also, I would suggest when dropping the cars off at the dealers make sure you go over the entire car with the service rep and examine it closely on return. Amazing how no one gives a F__K about anything.

POST 2Original post

It doesn't surprise me. A friend of mine picked up his new Lexus after warranty work and an oil service and noticed that the driver's door had been creased badly (while the stop was out). They tried to hide it with touch-up paint- the damage eventually required a new door skin!! I would recommend talking to the dealer first, and if they do not wish to cover the repair, try the paintless franchises. I'm not quite sure what they're referring to as "two layers" as most of the metal on 911 quarters I have run into- figuratively- are accessible all the way from the lockpost to the decklid . . . but I haven't dealt with the 997s.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
