Parked 07Camry Hit-help

I recently purchase a Red XLE/w Nav Camry in Last week of June. Before the Car was a month old another car hit my Camry and slight dent in the rear passenger door. The paint is scarthed off on small areas of both the front and rear passenger door. I was parked in my building outdoor parking lot and we all have assigned spaces so I know who did by they deny doing it.

My question is does anyone know the best method in repairing the dents and paint. I don't want fillers on the doors and I want a paint that use OEM factory paint. Any one know how I can find out what paint that Toyota.

Thank in advance for any advice

Pretty much the only way to repair with out filler would be to replace the entire door with a new one, insurance wont pay for that if its just a little dent.

Ask your dealership about Paitless Dent Removal, get an estimate through them for dent removal and repaint.

They should be able to just replace the door skin (not the whole door), if they can't pop it out. A guy I work with backed up into my rear drivers door last month, and the total for everything was around $1400.
