I've used PDR on my drivers door. There were 3 dents, a 3" vertical crease just forward of the door handle and two other 1" or so dings. For $250, PDR eliminated all of them. I do have a slight crease above the rear bumper seam on the driver's side quarter panel. I was told that since they couldn't get behind there without removing stuff, that they couldn't do PDR in that spot. It seems it works best when the dents are on doors or areas that they can easily get behind to pop out the dents. I'm really pleased with the results.

When it comes to vehicle repair options, traditional auto body repair is hardly ever the best option. While PDR has its limitations, it should always be the preferred option unless a qualified technician determines otherwise. paintless dent repair tool is more effective, is the least expensive option, saves much more time, is much better for the environment, and does a great job of maintaining the value of a vehicle as compared to traditional repair methods.

The best guy I ever found was, 20 years ago, at Dent Wizard. I can't remember his name though. He did wonderful work on my '88 M6 and another car too.
I thought the business was in Lodi but the current address is Elmwood Park. Either they relocated or or my recollection is faulty. He's probably moved on by now. Sorry I can't be more specifically helpful.

Carisma is amongst the best PDR shops in the Philadelphia suburbs. 40 years of experience. 2004 International dent champion scoring 99.06 out of 100. And for large dents as well as dings as long as the paint is not damaged. Just take a look at the before and after photos on their website. The second pair with the pronounced body curve is particularly impressive.

With Winter rapidly approaching for some that have dents that need removal. Keep in mind that temps in the 60F plus range are best for such removal.
