Default Dent help*

Hello everyone...
I was wondering if there is a easy solution to getting a small dent out, not really noticable, but you can see it at an angle,And it pisses me off. On the front left panel (metal)... is there something that the dealer can do to get it out?? maybe one of those suction cup popper thingies...

Thanks for the input.

i hear that this paintless dent removal can only work on certain parts of the car and for certain dents. i have 3 door dings from an idiot kid that parks next to me too. anyone know the extent of which the dent removal can work?

to the original poster... just be sure whoever you have work on your car is experienced in pdr work. since your car is silver, if they push to much on the backside of the dent it will move the metallics around and change the the color/tone in that area.

It depends on how deep they are and their location. I'd get an estimate at a local dent wizard. Go from there. I had them remove dents from my car. I went in with 3, the guy found 18 and removed them all. It wasn't expensive either, very reasonable.

Even if you park away from everyone, you are still going to wind up with dents/dings somehow. Just get used to it and get them removed when you can.

yup! ive used dent wizards for my dings and they've pulled just about 99.9% of the dent out.

speed monkey, i noticed that you are from everett, wa and i highly recommend you take it to dent wizard in bellevue and have brian and only brian work on your car.

call a paintless dent removal, not a pantyless dent removal which can sometimes be confused
