I have a dent above the drivers side door handle. No paint damage just a dent. How can I remove this without spending lots of or no money? Do devices such as pops a dent work which use a suction cup to pull it out? Are they worth the money?

It depends on the thickness of the sheet metal and the kind and size of the dent, A large smooth dent may "pop" out with a minimum of effort. On the other hand any dent that causes the sheet metal to stretch will be harder to remove. Thicker metal is easier to work with while the very thin sheet metal on alot of todays cars is harder to work with. Do you have access to the back side of the dent with the door panel removed? If so, light taps with the correct dolly or hammer may remove the dent.
Good luck!

I'm really not sure. That's the first thing I thought of, but I've never used one. If it's in the door, I wonder if you can take the inside of the door off and see the dent from the inside. Then take something and pop it back out. Just an idea. Good luck!

It would probably be cheapest to call one of those paintless dent removal companies that come out to you. Find one in the phone book and give them a call, they have very reasonable rates.
Probably a little more than the pops a dent, but guaranteed! I think those do it yourself kits are likely junk...and a waste of money.
Might as well call for an estimate.
