Minor door dent

Minor door dent
Hello,
This is my first time posting in a new thread. I've been a member for about 6 months and I purchased my 2014 Audi A6 Prestige Sedan back in Oct of 2013. I've been reading the forums quite a bit for tips and stuff like that. So I really appreciate everyone's input on the forums.
I have a quick question in regards to dents. I recently got a minor dent on the driver side door because the car next to mine accidentally open their car door too hard and it hit my car. Now I'm obviously upset but hey, it happens. I don't really want to go to the dealer or bodyshop yet because of price reasons. I was wondering if anybody have suggestions on how to fix these types of dent? It's very small but I can see it and it bothers me. I will upload a picture later. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
PJ

Check with one of the dent removal franchises such as dent pro. Many times they can make small dents disappear unless the dent has a crease. They should be able to tell you if they can fix your dent satisfactorily. I have had good results with this in the past and the cost was around a hun.

I have had a dent pro repair on an aluminum hood and it turned out perfectly. It doesn't cost anything to have it looked at and the rep can tell you if he can effect a repair.

Same here on mine. If it's not on a sharp angle, punctured or damaged paint, it can often be done from the outside.

PDR (paintless dent repair) all the way. They can work magic. I've had them remove dents on 2 x 911s, S4 and an S2000. No evidence that any of the dents ever existed.

Door-Dents...
I do not think the doors on the A6 are Aluminum. Quarters and hood and trunk I think...doors are standard steel.
I had a decent sized door ding repaired via the dentless fixer-guy - at the dealership when I took the car in for other things and it is perfect - totally gone and I could never find it again.
