      Unhappy Dings All over!!

      I am new to this forum and the the ep. I have had my car for about a month now and have already gotten 3 dings!! I was wondering if anyone can suggest a good way to remove the dings manualy or is it just best to go to the local body shop and have them do it? Thanks for any of your suggestions. :)

      Thanks everyone for giving me some good advice on fixing my dent/dings. I still have yet to get them done because I went to the Dent Wizard and they gave me an estimate of about 400$$$$!!!! The person that inspected my car found 2 dings I didnt even know I had! All of this was overwhelming so I backed off from getting them done. In the next few months I should be ding/dent free.

      im a paint vendor for many new/used car dealers and i work around alot of paintless dent removal companies. be careful because they will drill holes in the inside of your doors or hatch.. just about anywhere to get to a dent. they just plug them up with silicone or a black type plug scary IMO pisses me off everytime i see it done. Dent wizard is just about the only company i've seen that has used numerous other way to pull a ding.. then just get ur drill out right away. I recommend dent wizard.

      just wait til you get the dough up and do it, if you plan on keep ing it a while then you can wait til the paint gets shabby and get the whole thing painted like 3-4years from now, custom with a kit or something, thats what im thinking about doing

      is that how they do it? I never heard of this drilling method before, I just thought they remove the panel and work on it from behind
