coming out this week to my car to give me a quote for the car park dings..
I have 3 dings, 1 on each of 3 doors
they say it's £75 per panel = £225
But women on phone said the Technician when he comes may give you it cheaper as you are getting 3 panels done..
Bought a ding devil kit from ebay but too scared to use it so going to get it done professionally.

Mav just try the ding kit first, I used one on my m8's bike tank and was impressed. It can't do all types but I'd at least try before paying someone. Not much to go wrong, the glue comes off really easy on the plunger.

just ask for the 3 dents to be done, thats a bloody rip off otherwise, £75 per panel is fine if you have loads of dents on each panel.
a mobile guy near me does them, hes amazing at it, would charge about 80 quid for three dents like that

If you try the kit and it doesn't work, you've not lost anything

I only paid about £8 for the kit off ebay. It was worth it so far.

dents need to be pushed from behind, unless they are very large, the panel will be naturally stretched and will need some persuasion from behind to get it level, smaller dents, if sucked out may have a ripple to them

Feck knows, this was over 3 months ago, so the item numbers are greyed out.
Just found the box, Simoniz pops-a-dent
Was about £12 wirh postage if I can remember. The ebay guy imports them from the US and switches the plug on the glue gun to a UK 3 pin.
Can't find no link just yet.
