Last evening, I was leaving work and stooped at the red light. Bunch of kids (about 10) ran by and threw a soda can, and rocks at my car...

This really p$/!es me off when this happens. Karma will catch up with them.
That will be hard to repair.

Yep. Dent and a chip. I showed it to the body man, and the guy ( god friend of mine) told me that to pain entire door panel for this is counterproductive)))
I called a dent repair guy, who will look mat this later on tonight.

What kind of neighborhoods do you drive through in order to have kids throwing rocks at your car?

I used to live in the Philly area. Never happened to me but I see this all the time.

I would confess to having thoughts of wiping them out with my car or pulling out my concealed carry but in the end, it's just a car. Just gotta count your blessings you get to drive an X5 and the closest they'll likely get to one is by throwing objects at one.

Of course, I realize it's not much of a consolation when you're paying the dent repair guy

I have a concealed carry... I felt good, while thugs were attacking my car knowing i can.... but... Just like you said, it was just a car. When 10ish teens jumping cars like monkeys, and looking like one's i doubt anyone would bring their weapon of choice. First thing i told the cop upon his arrival (few of them )was that i was loaded. They all saluted me for it and compliment for not acting upon.

Little update. I contacted dent removal guy. He came yesterday, 40 min later he removed dent COMPLETELY. I was amazed. I will take care for a paint chip with touchup.
