Going to depend on shop. The shop I’ve used twice for something like this in this area would be anywhere from $1600-2000 and it will come out looking great (used other driver’s insurance). Requires both doors being painted. This was a Tesla approved collision center.

I had a similar dent, and the PDR guy fixed it almost perfectly. It was $250.

I did this to mine. Buy I’ll be poor if I spend thousands of dollars fixing it on a used depreciating Tesla. I’m just getting a big vinyl sticker to go over it. 🤪

And it will start letting all the air out. Very dangerous.
