Door ding removal
Can anyone recommend a door ding removal company/person, I've noticed a ding in one of my back doors....but worse than that, when I pulled the super unleaded nozzle off the pump in Tesco last weekend, it pulled off the diesel one too, which smacked into my back wing... 
.... easy to get to it through the boot and the scratch will polish out.
I had all the dings taken out of my WRX a few years back but can't remember the company, so any suggestions for Bridgend/Cardiff area much appreciated

I've had exactly the same happen to me at the pumps.
Exceldent did a group buy with some of us a few years ago, seeing them glue bits to the car is alarming but the results were great

I've tried several dent removers and the best by far is Mike from Mend A Dent. He comes to you, 100% reliable and will take on dents that many other 'repairers' can't do. He has saved me a fortune in panel repairs over the last several years especially with the chocolate doors on the Imprezas!!
If anyone wants his number pm me or i can try and organise a group buy at my unit in Blackwood if there are at least 6 people interested?? If it's 6 or more then i'm sure i could get him to do a whole car for around £50-£60, good value if there are a few dinged doors / wings.

One thing you have to remember, if they are proper jobs.
The Motortrade if done proper, will not do dent removing 'Cold Repair as its known' if the paint is cracked or crazed, if so then it should be a 'repair and paint'.
So check your dents before calling in the Dent Men !!!

Dave, where are you based in Blackwood ?
I work in Blackwood myself but I live in Magor and at the moment my car is untaxed, I wasn't looking to get it taxed for another month or so but what I might do is trailer it up to your place instead.
Also, how much for doing the whole car do you know ?

Ok, just had a chat with Mike and he's agreed on £60 per car, that's the whole car not per dent so if you've got several dents then that's a bargain!!!
He can come to my unit next Saturday morning around 10am on the 7th November, can you guys make it then? I've been using Mikes services for several years now and he is highly recommended throughout the motor trade.
Don't worry if it's raining as i'll pull some of my cars out of my unit so they'll stay nice and dry. I also have a steamer so if anyone doesn't get time to wash their car then they'll be welcome to use that and you can even make yourself a cup of tea or coffee
My postcode is NP12 3SP and that'll come up as Brittania Enterprise Centre on Pengam road near Blackwood.
Lastly, for £60 per car you'll need to pay him in cash and before anyone asks no, i am not profiting from this, in fact if people want to wash their cars and make tea it'll cost me a few quid!!
If anyone would like to start a new topic with names then that's fine or simply add names to a list on here. My mobile is 07810 098199, if you need to call then that's no problem
Dave.
ps. forgot to add, he doesn't use the glue stuck method just good old fashioned skill!!

I forgot to add that if we are less than the stated 6 people then there's no problem but at this price it would be good to get in. If anyone would like to see his work beforehand then i've got 3 or 4 cars to do so i'm happy for mine to go first.
There's also a nice little cafe 20 yards from my unit if anyone wants a breakfast or bacon roll. I'll make sure there's plenty of tea & coffee there as long as you don't mind making your own.

I don't mind who goes first as i'll probably end up being last as usual I'll see if i can get him there for just before 10am to be ready for a 10am sharp start.
Dave.
ps. if you've got any car you are welcome to bring that, it's not just limited to the choclate door Scoobies
