how can you get out the mirror ding from the front door swiming around?

dealt with this early in my ownership. I did it, I was not drunk, I take full responsibility 
.
Actually was at the dealership one day and asked about it. They said we have a little old guy who comes around once a week who can fix that. Ok? So the little old Italian guy took my jeep and 1/2 hr later had it fixed and I gave him $50 cash. Go find a little old Italian guy
Seriously, didn't watch what he did but it was done cheaply.

Mabe sometimes, but basically what your doing is heating/shrinking the sheetmetal. I've done this before, and it CAN work, but ONLY on a very large rolling dent with virtually no crease, just like the guy in the video. A pdr guy will likely just push it out from behind, thats what I would do, mabe use a glue puller first.
Sidenote, when I first got into pdr, I thought it was gonna be very easy...it isnt. And when you try this type of thing without proper training youll end up making it look a lot worse and it'll end up costing you more to fix.

Do you still do this?... I would rather give you my business since you are on the forum. I have one on the passenger side and a very small ding on the tub near the driver side rear door. Let me know and I will PM you.
Thanks.
