and it's my own fault too! :(

I was backing out of my driveway, and since we have this huge pile of trees out on the sidewalk (trimmed and awaiting pickup from monthly large trash person or whatever lol) it covered this truck entirely. I backed out and turned the car around the trees so that I face the opposite way of the truck.. and to my surprise I hit it T______________________T

the truck has no dents on it whatsoever, but I have this small dent mark that's pushed outward (instead of inward dunno how but it is).. it's smaller than a dime but even though no one else notices it... I NOTICE IT :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Sorry to hear ur dent.....Not sure in US...but in Vancouver, $95 CAD to fix the first dent, then each addtional one cost $15...so most people just wait for other dents and then fix them to save money...

So sorry to learn about that. If the dent is on metal and if the paint is intact, it is a good idea to use the paintless dent removal service suggested by fellow members above. I have used such a service on my other car and been quite satisfied.
Hope this minor accident will act as a vaccine to help you prevent any bigger ones for a long long time to come.

somebody backed into mine at the grocery store. I had to replace the whole front bumper... and the fender had to be touched up as well

it's the back bumper, so I'm guessing plastic? is there dent removal for plastic?

As far as I know, the bumpers are non-metal. In that case, I would recommend that you ask the dealership where you buy your Yaris from for a suggestion and a referral if appropiate.
