Re: Dents Glorious Dents!
TBH mate I can hardly see them. But like I said before you would be better off getting the panel reshaped than having a new one put in.

Re: Dents Glorious Dents!
It was pretty difficult to get pics that showed them, dont think it helps with the colour of my car, but yeah your right in some lights and angles you cant see them at all, on the other hand at some angles it looks horrible!

Well if the garage ever come back to me with a quote (been waiting nearly a week now) i'll express a wish that they try more to beat the dents out rather than replacing.

Re: Dents Glorious Dents!
Mobile guys do this sort of work using a bungee & a shaped rod! Quite interesting actually and about £15-30 a dent depending on size of dent.

Do you reckon a mobile guy would be able to do that then, id thought about looking into it but theres one quite large one that ive been led to believe wouldnt be able to be sorted by someone like that?
