While getting my strut brace off the back seat today the wind has blown my door and twated it off a wall. Now I have a dent about 5 inches long with loads of chips out of it right on the edge of the drivers door. Looks like it will be getting more work done in the bodyshop come the summer. But on the plus side got the strut brace fitted, only one of the bolts wont tighten up

what a s**t dude. i did the same with my boot, just not as bad.
take the bolt out and put loads of PTFE tape on them and try again. will get then a bit tighter in there.
one of mine just kept spinning.

I remember someone saying they used longer bolts when they fitted their strut brace, just trying to find who to see where them got em then will try that.
What makes it wore is its the only dent and damage on the car
