I recently noticed a small dent in my passenger side front fender. Its really starting to bug me. What is the best way to fix it. I got the dent in a shopping parking lot. Thanks to some A#@ Hole's shopping cart probably.

Although you may be tempted to buy and use one of those $20 do-it-yourself-as-seen-on-TV dent repair gadgets, don't. They are a hit or miss crapshoot and can easily make things worse requiring a trip to the body shop and a full refinish/repaint of the panel. Find a local paintless dent removal professional (Dent Doctor, Dent Wizard etc.) through the phone book or by recommendation in your local forum, and have them take care of it. In most cases they can remove small dents so effectively it will be like the dent never existed as long as there was no paint damage. If the paint was damaged only the scratch will remain which you can touch up.

hey you might not even need to go to the body shop....paintless dent removal...works mint. i detail BMW's for a living and you should see some of the stuff they pulled off. Usually i think they charge around $40-$50 a panel...i had my truck done and looks great. Great thing is they usually come to you.


Or if you do bring to a body shop they should have that kind of service too.
