Dent Removal Advice

Roo12 · 08-21-2021, 11:55 AM

Evening

Daughter passed her test 2 weeks and has been driving back and forth to her part time job at the local bowling alley were someone has bumped her car and done the usual disappearing act.

Daughter is obviously devastated.

Does anyone know if the damage can be done by a smart repair / dent man - paintwork is not really damaged

Thanks

I used a dent pro guy here in the USA for a good number of occasions. They do pretty miraculous work. The fender is doable, but the area at the door edge probably not as the dent guys use a metal rod tool which requires a working space behind the dent.

Choose your local dent guy and ask for a quote, they'll want pictures and they'll tell you straight away if they can do it. My wing was worse than that and for £200 you can barely tell....

Not sure where you're based, but if South East, try 'The Dent Men'

Used them a few times and always a great job. They'll tell you from pics if they can repair or not, so for the sake of a WhatsApp message you'll know for sure.
