    What I hate the most happened yesterday. I parked my Cali at a supermarket just for 5 minutes yesterday to buy a drink and found a dent on my door when I came back!!! Why people are so careless!!!

    Not sure where to fix it. Shall I go back to my old garage where I fix my pervious BMW or I shall go to Ferrari garage in London? Or you have a good recommendation? Thank you for your advice in advance!

    I am sorry to hear. Sucks and unfortunately that's the reason I choose my parking spots VERY carefully.
    I got banged scratched a few times at the front and back and that's why I have put paintshield protective film on the bumpers. It has saved me thousands!

    Anyway... for the dent it depends how bad it is but if you give the car to Topaz for the detail they will take care of that as well. If not paint is needed you can go to almost anyone to have it fixed....Ferrari will cost you quite a bit more than anyone else!

    Well, that's my fault to park next to that xxx car. Thought just a couple of minutes to buy a bottle so took my chance. Next time, I will park away from any cars. guess Ferraris are not supposed to mix with others. LOL

    Has it actually broken the surface of the paint/clearcoat? If not then a paint-less dent removal bloke might be able to fix it. I had a whole load of (what looked like) hailstone dents removed from a BMW I bought a year or two ago. PM me if you want the details of the guy that did it & I'll see if I can find his card/invoice - he was very good.

    Aluminium dents are supposed to be a lot harder to remove than from a steel body, so make sure that they have the right techniques and tools to handle this.

    Nothing makes me weep more than seeing dings on car doors.
