Ok..my passenger door has this big/long scrape/dent on it. Now it will cost around 400 bucks to get it fix, well I dont have that much money so I was wondering if I could like open the door panel and actually use a hammer or something to hammer back the dent. Do you guys get what I'm trying to say? My concern is will doing that damage the paint and stuff? Any comment will be fine.

first of all that is a lot harder than it sounds. you gotta remove the window actuator and you won't have too much space to hammer it because of the shell. you can give it a try but make sure you have some rubber hammers available so u won't make it worse.

I will try it out. I have another question regarding performance. I was thinking of buying Nology spark plugs wire..will this help my car performance wise? I heard it help your horsepower and acceleration. Or should i get the DC SPorts Ceremic Headers?

I'd get the header over the wires. You might only see gains with wires if you have an upgraded ignition system.

and Unorthodox crank pulley...what are they? and what will they do for your ride?

That's a hard thing to do for a first time at body work. if you screw up you end up taking it to the pros anyway and it'll cost more most likely to fix your mistakes. know form xperience
