good door ding repair?

Can anyone suggest a good ding repair shop in san jose area or even a DIY kit? After 1.5 years I finally got my second ding, right on the crease of the front fender flare. I usually park away from other vehicles, but I went on a road trip this past holiday weekend. irritated as hell right now...

Its gonna happen. Not much you can do about it. You typically can't fix dings, just minor dents in areas accessible from the back and usually not along creases. You can google paintless dent removal and they will ask you the right questions about it and tell you if they can fix it.

I had my fender done and it came out great. Then not even a week later some asshat backed into me in the SAME SPOT and put that dent right back I was waiting for the tard to back out of a spot at Frys and he obviously didn't see me. I was HONKING and he still backed into me WTF?

I think of dings as a signature. Sure they make your car not as sexy as before... but it'll happen eventually, regardless. So just think of it as a signature for your car. After a while and a billion other dings/dents you get kinda used to it. Or that's how it happened to me... Super pissed to slowly, eh that looks new *shrug*.
