hey guys
im in a bit of a dilema, a few months back we had a fair storm and my auntie parked my el under a tree while i was at work, and sure enough a branch fell on the car. it has left a couple of nasty dints on the top of the door frame on the drivers side :cry: . just wondering wats the best way to repair it? should i bog it or take it to the panel beaters????
thanks el plumber ;)

panel beater..... charge like $50 a dint then like 25 for each one after that. Depends who you go to though and what type of dint it is.

dint, dent
color, colour
toe-mato, to-marto.
pot-tay-toe, pot-tar-toe

anyway try and find a dint doctor. ive got a mate that went through a similar thing with his nice new VE SS. ill try find his details, but what the guy did was go over the dints with 'special' magnets and/or suction cups and pop them back out to how they were.

i know ill get the sh*t picked out of me for that concept, but thats all i was told- and i was also told it worked wonders...i think he charged like $20-$50 a dent/dint/ding depending on the size and how many.
