Thanks for everyone’s input! Ended up going through insurance. Let’s hope it looks perfect once it’s back!

Thanks for your input folks. I ended up going through insurance for both the damages. Paintless dent repair people mentioned that they can’t fix the deeper scratch. Hoping car looks perfect once it’s back.

Wasn’t at fault. I think deductible is $500. Explained what happened above.

I think they are going to PDR the quarter panel and re-paint the paint chip since they did mention that it might start to rust since it’s made of steel. I also already asked them if they could just do the door and I can take care of the quarter panel but they said they can’t do that since it...

I wasn’t at fault. A flying object on the freeway hit me and that scenario falls under comprehensive. I just can’t wrap my head around the fact that insurance will pay $4400 and not jack up my premium to recoup their money even if I wasn’t at fault.

Hi, took my car to Tesla collision center and they quoted $4400 in body paint repairs for the following damage. Good news is insurance will cover it since the claim falls under comprehensive and I have a low deductible but I’m scared my insurance still might go up after. What do you think? Is...

I took it to a generic body shop as well and their quote was still around $3k which I’d have to pay out of pocket later since insurance won’t cover after a certain amount of time has passed after the accident. At that point I might as well take advantage of my low deductible. Also, most local...

Called a few places and lowest quote I got was $275. They were skeptical of fixing it due to the paint crack. Also update from Tesla collision center is that they recommend to fix the cracked paint since quarter panel is made of metal and will rust, causing more expenses in the future, so it...

Tesla collision center quoted me a pretty high price for this dent. Do you think this can be PDR? What do you think estimated cost might be around?
