Hey guys. I was just wondering what I should do with an extra $300. I don't have much of anything on my s14 except an injen intake. I do have a nasty dent in the fender right above the front driver side tire. :( not too bad though.

So should I find a way to fix that ugly scar or upgrade some parts!? I can't decide! I don't know what upgrades the $300 would be best spent on either. :help

Before you mod, always, always, DO the neccesary stuff first. Replace worn parts, damaged parts, and stock **** before you start modding. It may be tempting, but you'll be much happier wiith yourself when you take care of essentials. Plus nothings more ghetto than a beatup car with a bunch of **** on it. (Unless they're drift battle scars ;) j/k )

I heard that the ding king is worthless, i believe it. For 300 you could get some swaybars. That would probably one of the most noticable mods for under 300.

i was half serious about the ding king. i do have one though but fortunatly i never tried it yet. i don't know about using glue on my paint though, but it seems like it would work to an extent. or depending on how the dent is a large suction cup froma parts store would work.

someone left the ding king at my work.. it was slow, so we played with it.. it works for small dents, around the size of a quarter to a 50cent. The glue peeled off of soem cars really easliy, and not so easily off of others.

The ding king actually does work remarkably well for small jobs, as someone said the size of a quarter or fifty-cent piece. I was very surprised and plased with my results when I used it, and the glue actually does peel off rather easily.

Welcome to the site! as said above, fix all the broken/worn stuff first, then get an intake or something.
