Actually the dent didn't happen at Shift...I got it appraised there! Bad punctuation on my behalf!

I have used Auto Dent Magicians and was very impressed. The dent completely disappeared. http://www.autodentmagicians.ca/loca...tact-info.html

Back in 2005 I needed a ding fixed before I traded in my Jaguar XK8, and the dealership recommended a guy named Stefan who operated a mobile body shop under the name "Van-Go". My recollection is that he did an excellent job for a very reasonable price. I have a cell number in my contacts, which I'd be happy to provide to anyone who PMs.

This is the guy I use. He's taken 3 dents out of my car, two small dings and one pretty major one where someone backed into me. He's behind tires23 if you guys know where that is (Matheson/Dixie area). Nice guy, good prices, amazing work.

Two of our cars (not the Porsche) were severely damaged in a hail storm a few weeks ago (each had 12 to 14 huge dents). Took the cars to Bianchi Bros. at Bathurst and King. They have a mobile company from the U.S. working there now due to the large volume of claims requiring paintless dent removal. Joe Bianchi said the guy was the best he's seen and I can tell you that both of our cars are now flawless. Hope that helps.

Do a search Dent Doctor. Its a fairly large company that sometimes will come to your house. CASH is always the best.

I used Castle Collision for a bad dent on my Cayenne. Very reasonable and superb work.

Just came back from seeing "T" (I think his name is actually Tillan) there. Took out 5 small dents in about an hour for $180 cash. Great work and great price.


FYI: they have 2 Michelin cup tires (used, but with some life left) 295/30/18 available for sale. don't know how much since I'm not interested, but someone else might be.
