+1 on the price, that'll determine which I attend.

Prices are determined by your dents... but the usual small door dings usually go for $25(!!). If it's on a body line, or if it's a crease it will be more work and so usually a bit more.

If you have a ton of them all over your car Justin usually will do a walk around and give you a good price for the entire thing.

Large dents are determined by him as well.

Perfect timing, too. Just got dinged on both sides yesterday.

Got quoted for $133.50 for two [less than]1" dings. The estimate price above is MUCH better.

Looks like I might have to miss the drive. Just to be clear, there is no drilling, correct?

With my last car I took it to one of those PDR store fronts in San Jose and not only did the guy drill into my door jam, but he also ****ed up and added a reverse dent from trying to tap out a dent with a screwdriver.

Can you do anything for my car?

I'm willing to spend like $50 or $75 to pop out these dents.

Does it look like a point now? If yours has already been pushed to far the paint may be damaged. If that's the case Justin will do his best.

Sometimes they have no choice but to drill a hole somewhere if the dent isn't accessible any other way.

Yeah, it was. Fortunately I traded that car in. I have 2 matching pressure dents (think someone buffing the roof and left a cell phone in their pocket) under the crease near the front driver and front passenger side door handles.

Same spot circled in red on both sides:

Those should be easy enough.

What dates on the Peninsula? I'd love to make it for the 30th. I'll be in button willow helping out GST. I have a ton in the Legacy that need to be done.
