Angry Paintless dent removal on an Ally bonnet

Has anybody had this done on their car?

and if so,was it successful?

as some anonymous wnaker has decided he'd test just how stiff my front suspension was by pressing firmly down on the font corner of my bonnet,leaving a luvly palm-sized indentation c/w a slight crease on it

Why can't some people leave things the **** alone?

Hi John, haven't had dent removal done on an ally panel, but I've got a 'tame' dent remover who lives near me ( and hence, near you ), and he's excellent. When are you back in england?

not sure it can be done If it's the triple skin one then it's a pig to get right.
Might be wrong though, but be prepared for a big bill

Definite sympathy, have a WRX that someone thought they would use as a door rest. Conveniently left a dent on the angle of the rear side panel, fortunately not creased. Selfish b'stard!

Can anyone recommend a decent dent removal service in Wiltshire, or there abouts?

Elmer,

It can be done - I had my finger prints removed by a local specalist. Cost me 45 quid and there's no sign of them now

Nope,not entirely....the dent came out ok but the small crease didn't!

..was told I'd need the entire bonnet respraying to remove the damage completely.. 340 euros and 3 days without the car
