Default Dent Removal GB

Anyone up for sorting out a Group Buy to get any dents removed before show season?

I've got the Scoob and the 182 to get done!

Um me maybe yes as well but I was going to attempt to get an hourly rate or fixed price as I've got a few as well but they are spread out so a price per panel is no good for me plus I'm not able to travel for the moment either, pencil me down Merv but ideally I will need to talk to the man to see if he can work within my constraints damn I'm almost sounding professional but saying that I've nothing major all bare one are small car park ones.

Spoke to Mr Dent today, basically said he could do 4 cars in a day, his normal charge is

1 Panel, 4 dents per panel- £55
2 Panels as above- £35 extra
3 panels as above- £25 extra so £55 + £35 + £25

But if we have them done as a GB he could possibly do them for £55 each, + any PITA will be negotiated on the day! He treat each car as its his own and if he spots any dents that you haven't seen then he won't mention them unless you want him to

Seems like a really nice guy and he will be sent the link to this thread once the interest builds up! If we can get a list together, with what dents you have seen and if possible any pics then he can work out his plan of action then!

1. Merv- Scoob (3 panels, bonnet an 2 doors, small dents) and ClioSport- (4 panels- small dents on doors, 1 dent on bootlid, couple on roof) that I know of!
2.

Is that £55 each car or am I reading it wrong?

The best thing for me Merv is to call him as I'm not sure really about quantity on mine and with it not here handy I'll have to list them when I have chance, nothing major really just spread out a touch.


Have you a location indoors Merv or is that something you need to suss out?

More questions,

Can he pull small dents from the outside using the sticky chewing gum material when access behind the panel is prohibited ?

Will he come to your home address ?

Well I have a small dent on the back quarter panel, and one on the roof, I know they have concerns with the roof but I dont think it will be to much trouble for him as it can be got at without removing the head lining.

Do you think its best for me to contact him for costs Merv..?

Yes Lee, contact him and see, he also said ones of the roof aren't a problem, just get us to remove the headlining and it would make things easier

3. The Trooper 1815 - Front NS Wing, Rear OS Wing. I can have the wheel arch covers off for the front wing and rear tail light removed for access to the dings. The doors can wait.
