Default Dent removel

Lookin for some advice on who to go to and what to pay. I've got about 8 little dints down the sides. Heard a couple of conflicting stories on what to pay. A freind said they charge £50 a dent but also heard some companys charge £50 a pannel? I could stomach payin £200, but don't think I could justify 400 notes as there not that bad and you have to catch them at the right angle. Anybody had any experiance with these companys. cheers for any help

I got a quote for small dints on my newage from chipsaway in Bedford and they wanted £40 a dint.

A lot of it depends where the dints are but reckon on £40 - £50 a dint

I had a 10cm dent on the off side passenger door and that cost me £70 to have removed. Then about a week later the 'orrible little cat from next door managed to push a metal petrol can off a shelf and onto my car - grrrrr So I need to get that one sorted

Give some of the larger garages around a ring.

I know some local ones to me sub-contract theirs out. I got a guys number from one of them, and it was a 1 man band who travelled around the area.

I went through to meet him in my old fiesta st, and the guy was working at the Renault garage at the time. He got 3 or 4 out I think, and one was quite difficult as it was on a crease. He only charged me £20 and he was a real nice bloke.

So....you could try that perhaps
