My car took a golf ball in the hood...

Happy sunday all...

So about two weeks ago my car took a phantom golf ball in the most inopportune place, give this a look... The next shots are from the paint less dent repair complete.

Before:



After: (I thought for sure it was not going to come out this well)



Thought you would all might appreciate the fix.

Look really good. can't even notice there was a dent. I have a friend that does the paintless dent repair for a living and it is amazing what he can do with dents. Definitely a master at his craft!

Well, it's my stress relief to play. But I will certainly park in a different place when I go back to that course. Someone hit a very poor shot for it to happen, just unfortunate I had to spend 200 bucks to get it fixed. But accidents happen.

Nope, it's pretty much park at your own risk at most golf courses. It's all good, just glad it's back to normal.

Happened to me once whilst driving past a local golf course. I drove straight to the club house . They sent their dent man out the next day to repair my car.
