I will admitt some of the old school guys that don't like change can do a good job. The problem with drilling a hole is the insurance companies say it changes the crumple zones and the PDR tech could be held responsible . Quote HistoryQuoted:

So I got a quarter sized ding on my drivers door. It's inaccessible from the back-side without taking off the door panel. Would a dent-remover be able to fix it? The guy I watched drilled a hole on the end of the door, then plugged it with a matching plastic plug when he was done. The guy who drilled a hole is a hack , there is no reason to drill if you invest in a good glue kit. Probably. He's been doing it for 20+ years, so perhaps he hasn't kept up with the latest technology? He makes a good living, BTW.  I will admitt some of the old school guys that don't like change can do a good job. The problem with drilling a hole is the insurance companies say it changes the crumple zones and the PDR tech could be held responsible . What? It's a small hole. They're not cutting pieces out with a sawsall. |

My WRX has a handful of dings, small, about a quarter's size, that need to be removed. On the trunk, hood, and a couple on the quarter panels. What's the ballpark charge for removing one? Looks like this thread is turning into a "ask a ....... anything" thread.  The local guy I use is $75 for the first dent, $25 additional for each one after that. |

in the past didn't they weld rods to it? That's more for dent removal when they are doing body work and is still used. What I am talking about is a guy removing dents with picks amd such without hurting your paint.

So two days after having this amazing process done. Someone hits our car in a parking lot and leaves. Same quarter panel that I had the dent removed. Now it's at the shop having the rear passenger side quarter panel removed and replaced. Feels so good having a 1 yr 8000 mile Pilot chopped up.
