A friggin wall in a parking garage! Was a very tight space and was alot easier getting in than getting out. I got a new wheel molding trim coming in and hoping a little detailing will get the small scratches out. By the way, looks like a huge scratch in the picture but it is actually a reflection of the parking line.

They do come to you but in my case the shop is right down the street and I rather take it there and wait. They said about an hour and will look good as new.

Hmm... I thought they ONLY come to you too, as they have no workshops.

Interesting...

that sucks Brody. Thats one reason why I drive straight to the top of parking garages. And if they are underground garages, I don't go in.

They will come to you here or you can go to their shop. It is cheaper at their shop. The guy that did my work was an artist, you cannot see where the dents ever existed.

I had 3 dents on top of the fender(tree fell on it), the largest was about 3" long, 1/2 " deep, and one drivers side door ding. All scratches were able to buff out. $130. I stood and watched, it was very interesting.

Not difficult at all. Takes a lot of patience and you have to be able to handle some stress. he would work different long handle tools up to the bottom side of the dent and sort of rub them out. Then, using a small soft plastic chisel, tap it from the top.

My next door neighbor had a dent taken out of his Lexus, It was amazing to watch, can't tell the dent was ever there.
