Cracks in the paint will start to show soon though.

Can work on metal too. Hot water not necessarily needed, but could help keep the paint from cracking.

If plastic, and no creases in the dent, then yes, this CAN work. Creases or folds will not come out as smooth.

You have to be careful that the paint isn't damaged otherwise you'll be in for a bad time

This is obviously reversed...

actually its not. they ship bumpers in the mail folded and you can just use a heat gun or leave it in the sun to put it back to normal.

If it's plastic, it will

It depends if you like water boarding with boiling water or not. Doing it on yourself is optional.

If you swap the boiling water for lube and plunger for a dildo you can add more dents

I've got enough dents and scratches

Sometimes this works like a charm. Sometimes you end up doing even more damage. Sometimes the body of the car is made of friggin steel. x_x

I think this is the first time I've ever seen someone complain that it WASN'T plastic

I've corrected dents like this even during simple oil change jobs for free, especially to repeat customers, doesn't hurt to ask. Toss me $20

5 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 0

There are two types of bodywork when dildos are concerned.

5 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 0
