Picked up a Honda for a daily driver, and it has a pretty sizable dent on the driver's side behind the front door. Do those suction cup things work or is there a better DIY option out there that's affordable?

The question may be, Can the dent be pulled out with the cup? If not, then consider a dent puller and do a little body work. Are there multiple creases in the sheet metal? Post up a pic of the dent.

I ended up buying Rob's Accord that he had up on here. Only 113k miles and seems to be in great running shape. I need to keep from spending any money on it but I've already been looking at parts for it lol

Do the body work wet sand the whole thing with 500 grit and scotch brite the edges then take it to maaco. If you do your own prep work their paint will stick fine and you will end up with a nice DD.

Sounds like it's fucked. You should just buy my Lightning and motorcycle.

I was actually thinking about doing that eventually. Would like to clean it up and tastefully mod it.
