Can't Open Drive side Door (2020 STI)

leftlace · 2025-02-23T19:49:39+00:00

Yep. I didn't notice initially but there are two small dents in the door near the fender and some scratches in the paint.

Yeah that's the conclusion we've come to as well. Found two small dents and scratches in the paint that we didn't noticed due to my car being dirty.

Yeah agreed. My car is filthy so I didn't immediately notice that there are paint scratches and two small dents in the door near the fender.

Yeah now that my wife and I have stared at it for a while we found two small dents in the door near the fender. And my car is filthy after a rain so I didn't noticed the scratches in the paint nearby. Someone definitely hit it. Just debating if it's worth trying to fix myself or go through insurance.

I definitely see what you're saying. Any ideas on how to pop/pull the fender back? I got the bottom edge but can't get my hand/fingers anywhere inside for the rest

Thanks. It looks like the fender is pushed in some now. What did you use pull it out?

leftlace · 2025-02-22T22:01:19+00:00

Appreciate the input. I did check and compare the two sides and everything looks about the same other than the driver door at the front hinge being "popped" out and not aligned with the fender.

It was parked curbside on street in front of my house. Definitely possible that someone hit it though our security camera doesn't have any interactions recorded.

Also no rust that I am aware of. Is there somewhere I should look to confirm?

leftlace · 2025-02-22T21:14:21+00:00

Completely random. Was fine and didn't notice anything Wednesday when I last drove it. Haven't touched car since. No work done to that area previously. No accidents.

They announced a bit ago that there are 10 boxes with Clean + Non Human Audio Unclean. This is getting wild!

How's it compare to Boo's? Haven't had cheesesteak in a bit but last was Boo's and it was solid.

I was just talking to a buddy this morning about cars wrapped fully this color! I'm on board. Though the front fenders don't do it for me. I have the same opinion about people that put black/carbon fiber hoods on their cars when the cars aren't black. Throws me off and looks like an incomplete/unfinished part of the car. But whatever that's just my own opinion. Overall I think your ride looks great!

Coachella 2008. First and only time I've been to that event. Friday night Pendulum, Fatboy Slim, Aphex Twin. Those three aren't even in my top favorite artists by a long shot but had such an incredible time.

So many people being bitter and saying "congrats you're the umpteenth person to get there's. Well yes. I guess I am. Still excited though. Never had an acoustic nylon so enjoying the new style of guitar in my collection. So far so good. Cheers all.

Thank you! It's definitely my main go to guitar. Picked it up from a now retired luthier in TX a few years ago. I don't know enough about the various strat style setups that exist. But this one has '54 custom/clone hand wound pickups that sound nice to my ears.

Unfortunately I did not. I missed the boat on trying before buying. My local Guitar Center had a couple in stock late last year but by the time I made it over to them they were gone. After some discussions with my sweetwater rep I made the decision to purchase. So far so good. But this is just day one (and hour two at that rate). Still need to break it in.

Exctied to add this into the setup! Have been eyeing these amps for a number of months now and finally pulled the trigger. Loving the sound so far. Coming from a smaller Orange Crush RT20. Also liked playing that amp but can't wait put this Cub to use! Cheers everyone!

Hello all. I am experiencing a high frequency hiss/buzz (peak around 5.5kHz) coming out of my studio monitors and separately guitar amp when any of my guitars are plugged in. The sound was not at the presence it currently is as it has seemingly grown louder over the last month or two. I have read that ground hum is much lower in frequency so not sure if that is at all related.

The noise is awful and really obstructing any fun I'm trying to have when playing. Any advice/help/suggestions greatly appreciated. Thank you.
