LA repair shop says a door dent on this supercar costs $50,000 and a camera wouldn’t even pick it up

This LA repair shop realized that the tiniest door dent ever would cost a supercar owner $50,000 to fix, even though it’s so hard to notice that a camera won’t even pick it up.

The unique way the door is shaped means that it’s more prone to dings and bangs, making this particular part of the vehicle a bit of a magnet for dents.

The LA repair shop had to come up with a solution to fix the door dent that involved minimal repainting and minimal money spent as well.

The yellow Ferrari SF90 Coupe has RDB custom wheels, lowered suspension, an aftermarket rear wing, and carbon accents, as well as the pesky door dent, but thanks to the LA repair shop, hopefully not for much longer.

How can a door dent cost $50,000?

You’d think that when you buy a supercar, the most expensive part of the process is over once the money changes hands.

However, with this particular supercar, it has one specific design quirk that makes it accident-prone in a way that no others are.

This LA repair shop shared the story of a Ferrari SF90 Coupe that belonged to a friend of the shop. He was devastated to realize that his supercar had a dented door.

When looking at the door dent, it became clear that it was extremely tiny. In fact, it was almost impossible to pick up on camera.

But for one specific reason, it came with an enormous repair price tag.

This supercar looks great on camera

The LA repair team, RDB LA had to come up with a way of removing the dent without having to repaint the whole body.

Even though the dent was barely noticeable on camera, a full repaint would cost $5-10K. The new paint would then cause the supercar to depreciate by around $20-30K in value.

Meaning that the full repair price tag would be $50,000 if they chose the paint option.

The team decided that the best paintless approach would be to first remove the interior door panel. That way, they could access the reverse side of the dent.

The team then used special tools to gently massage the metal back into shape from behind. And they did an incredible job, too.

While the Ferrari SF90 is a beautiful beast, it’s unfortunately prone to dinks and scratches due to a design quirk. The doors stick out slightly, which is something to consider when buying this supercar.

So, it looks as though even a seemingly perfect car can have flaws – it’s quite reassuring in a way.
