south west (devon) dent removal (PDR)

[The Fatty]

Like a t**t I stupidly pushed my bonnet closed and now have a shallow 5' dent next to the centre line!!!!!


are there any recommended PDR people in the sw?

i Used a guy for the same problem in Falmouth cost £60 & took him about 30 mins.

Thanks, but that's a bit to far away and a bit steep tbh. Anyone got any recommendations in the north/mid Devon area?

£60 a bit steep? Sure thats around the going rate for this type of stuff, a friend used one a few years ago and they charged £40 a dent.

Ok bud, no worries.

£40-£50 is what I would expect per panel, and I might get then to look at a few other panels that had dents sense I purchase the car (car park door dents), so cheaper the better provided they do a good job

I just did a google search, theres a company in Plymouth that seems to be pretty good. I have a bit of a dent on the edge of my door, not really bothered about it right now, but may get it done.

Maybe think about getting the bits sprayed as you go along?

I have slowly got to mine as 1 or 2 people have hit me but it did me a favour as I got new paint and got rid of the dents at the same time

I have a really good body shop work on my car just last week if you want to check him out. Or check his work on my panels

thanks, I'm after PDR though as the paint is fine on these bits and they are just very light dents; they can only see them when the light catches them and don't have an impact point, the metal is just a bit pushed in if you know what I mean. I do need my bumper re-sprayed though but I want to have a go my self on my bumper later in the year as they does need spraying!

They seem to dent easy these cars I have lots of the same type of dents on mine. Bloodly things
