Default Got my first Ding (!!##?!) Help paintless dent removal

Would greatly appreciate recommendations for a paintless dent removal reference in the northern NJ area. I have a old contact but his work was not nearly as good as some of the others who remove all traces of the dent.

I've had my benz done at benzel busch and they did a nice job.

You may want to contact your local dealers to see who they use.

I would go with Body Smooth (Gary Morini). He does a lot of the new car dealer work in NNJ as well as the work for quite a few of the detail shops that advertise dent removal. 201-669-8113

lol, don't feel too bad, my first one came in less than one day! My son (2 at the time) knocked over the pool skimmer, whose handle hit the left fender!

I have a great contact in New Rochelle, if that helps. Call George at Proformance Industries http://www.proformanceindustries.com/

Just remember that the pushing out of a dent is a real art.

Try to get the most experienced tech the shop.

Unless it's really bad, it might make sense to just leave it. If you live in NJ you're going to get another ding. I'm pretty protective of my car but the parking is so tight here and the 70% of the people in the state seem to be parking and exiting the car in a daze... possibly under the influence of painkillers or something. If you ever see someone ding someone else's car you'll understand what I mean. They act like it didn't happen. They're as nonchalant about it as they would be if they dropped a pencil- the just pick it up and keep going.

You might want to consider a trip to the dent wizard once every 2 years or something.
