Default The car ding guy came out and remove the door dings.

The car ding guy came out and removed the two car dings and a dent. One ding was on the door the other on the crease on the front tire wheel and the other was a dent on the front of the rear well.

I have a near perfect car now . Should have taken before and after pics, but did not think of it.

that's great.
they do a great job... some do it on the side from the dealers as well... normal stealer will charge lets say $250... the dw dude will usually go for $100 cash. amazing though, i was surprised what all it entails to get some dings out.

& isn't it amazing when the car is dingless?!!! i was so much happier w/ my 993! a ding really upsets the lines of our pcars.

The really nice thing is the peace of mind knowing that a door ding isn't the end of the world as we know it.

I got me a ding in my bmw and I thought for sure they could get it. No problem. Wrong. Built like a vault and he can't get his tools in there far enough. <sigh> Glad yours worked out.

not the end of the world when you have a ding . "aman" to that. How do you speel "aman"?

blau.

Now all I need is to have the scratches on the wheel buff off taken care off. Have the car aligned right (it was supposed to have been alighed when I bought it, but....), and a new clutch put in.... Man that is a lot of work.......

with all that I will have a near perfect car. not bad if that is all I have to do.

For the doors, can they get down through the window opening, or do they have to take the panels off?

I assume for fenders they remove the wheel well liner and get in that way?

Got four nasty small dings out last spring. Gave him $100. maybe $150.

2 in the upper fender and 2 in the door. He made it look easy...
