I have dimples on both sides from the mirror banging the Jeep. Kids of course open doors with the grace of a rhino, so if you have kids, don't forget to latch the damn things so they don't swing all the way open. Anyone else have the trademark dimples?

I've never done it myself, but the dealership got my driver's side while they were working on the door. They had it fixed for me, though-- so no dimples here!

I got one on the drivers side...(you should always disconnect the wiring first then unhook the strap)
Some ask why don't I fix it, I say its a reminder. not to do it again!!!

Does that piece of the body just unscrew right off? There are hex screws bolted there. Anyone try taking it off? If it comes off, I'd just hammer it back into place with a rubber mallet. I keep meaning to try it but I keep forgetting.

The door dimples are so common I even think some people are doing it just to be in the "in" crowd. What I would like to know is who has a front (right or left) end bumper crunch?
