Geico's insisting that there isn't a loss of value in the state of Nevada. Idk, when I asked, I asked to see something in writing as I also called my insurance, but they also like I said earlier, told me that there isn't loss of value if it isn't frame damage.

If you want to try a bit, if you have one of those suction things for moving glass, you could try to pull those dents out a lil bit by yourself. Just do it gradually, I pop'ed a few dents (big and small) out of a few friends cars back in high school (cause people dont know how to drive ).

sucks man. sorry to hear.
and usually for damage like that they have to blent into the rear 1/4 and the front door. bit of a PITA, but I've seen my old man do it (body shop guy for 25+ years).
Good luck either way

Man, I hope they do a quality job and just put a new door skin on. It's actually less work that way, and it would be a much cleaner repair. With damage like that, they will blend into your front door and obviously the rear quarter panel as well, because of the damage there. I hope everything turns out okay.
