BMW got keyed, repainting question

[cheframsey]

Hey guys, I recently had someone key the entire passenger side of my 2000 BMW 323i. My insurance said they would cover the cost to fix it, so I brought it into a reputable body shop to do the work.

The guy from the body shop just called me to let me know that there are some small dings on the doors that insurance would not cover, and it would cost me $400 to fix them. Do you guys think its worth it to fix the dings? The rest of the car has some dings on it as well and I think it would look funny having only one side of he car that looks perfect. Also, if I didn't fix the dings do you think it would affect the quality of the new paintjob?

Thanks

You didn't notice the dings before you brought it in, I would leave it alone or go take a look and see again what you think.

My first thought is the shop is trying to drum up some extra business, but take a look and judge for yourself.
