Paintless Dent Removal - ScoobyMods page

I had to have a dent removed today (some bonehead at work hit my door ) I've been going to the same paintless dent guy for some time now. He does really nice work. I asked him if he'd mind if I took pics as he worked. Thought it might be of interest to some people.

Cheers,

If you can't see the pics you need to register but it's free to do so.

i was thinking about getting a dent removed, its about 1/4 of an inch from the edge of my trunk. i wonder if they can get it out. its smaller than the one you had, how much did they charge?

I was going to do it with mine also, but the problem is that my hood has a nice paint spot missing as well from where a rock got me.

I personally dont like this method because when the dent occures and the is repaird the paint loosens. So if you are like me and go to hands free carwashes with high pressure sprayers after a wile it will blow the paint in that area off. Obviously some dents will be more prone to this than others.
but I guess if you want to save the money and take your chances this is as good of a bet as you can get.
