The guy I used charged £50 per panel and would do all dents in that panel.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

I used a guy from brighouse way, PDR, usually charges £70 per car. my friends garage uses him all the time, so i paid £35 for the car doing. One in the boot and on ein my roof that needed the headlining removing  :signLOL:

Think the going rate is approx £40-50 per panel.

If you get any luck with this, let me know Phil. Some SOB decided to put a pretty big parking dent in mine the other day!  :sad1:

Gutted for you martin  :sick: (I saw your car in the week and its was looking good)  Speaking to my mate and co-owner of the xr2 and escort today and he recommends Dent Magician out at small dole (Bn59xQ) just the other side of henfield, Ben is very fussy with his cars and vans so if he recommends someone they must be good.

When I get the escort back (in for precautionary cambelt change at the moment) I'll pop down there, find out whats what and get back to you.

There is a guy reasonably local to midlands that I was put on to by my neighbour, he did an amazing job of removing two dings from the back of his car for £40 after he reversed in to wheelie bins. He also came and sorted my mates a3 on the boot for the same and removed the dents from a bike rack. If your in that neck of the woods try him. He goes under Dents Away mobile number 07971493121
