Any ideas if PDR guys/shop could fix it? Accidentally dropped keys on it

 

I don't see why a PDR shop couldn't do that, but I assume the sill cover would have to be removed first.

I imagine a replacement piece would be pretty dear.

 

Hopefully they can tap that out. I think those strips are expensive. Did you shut the door and pinch the keys against the strip?

 

Thanks guys -

My keys just dropped on the sill while door was open ��

Lesson learned for me..gotta be careful with Aluminium

I guess I'll try the ding removal guys...

 

Door sills will hv to be removed at least partially so they can get something behind it.

 

Ideas how to remove it? DIY...

 

Seriously? You dropped your keys on the door sill and it dented like that? It may be time for Porsche to back off a bit on its lightening of the car parts to save fuel. That is just ridiculous.

 

Glorified tin foil.

 

Sorry, don'y buy your story. Unless you have one of those 50lb. keyrings.

 

I put the rest of the keys along with the fob..the angle and the sharp keys did it for me.

 

I replaced my doorsills with the extended aluminum version. They were supposed to come with the car but it would have delayed the build so Porsche provided them to me after delivery. The original units are very difficult to remove as the have that 3M type adhesive attaching them to the body. I ruined the original parts removing them, pretty much bent from the force it takes. It's possible there may be another trick to removal but not so much from what I could see.


Sorry to hear.

 

Looks like your sill is lighted so it will be expensive to replace. Just try the dent removal guy and see what happens. Worse case, you'll need a new sill. Or just ignore it.

 

Definitely annoying; hope you can fix it. Otherwise minor and one of the things that only you'll notice and look for. I have one on my other car, and it is scratched beyond reason. I just chalk it up to the being there to be scuffed, etc. If it's an expensive fix, I'd leave it until it gets dinged up more before replacing.
