Dent removal - Billy2Jags
My daughters Beetle has 2 small dents in the roof (no paint damage) caused by students walking over it.
She now wants to sell the car and is looking for the best way to remove the dents.
A recent bodyshop quote was £700
Are the paintless dent removal methods any good? anyone have any experience of these methods.
Regards

I wouldn't have it resprayed.

Call someone like Dentmaster and have a chat.

They will have to get access to it by removing part of the roof lining but in my experience they always do a really good job.

My wife's Punto had two nasty dents in the door recently which they fixed in about 40 mins for £85. I can just about see the evidence of the damage but you wouldn't be able to i don't think. I'm fairly picky.

I suspect that yours will cost more than this but a lot less than £700. And it will look better afterwards.

Good luck!

Just to be clear - the evidence that I can see is the slightest of 'shimmerings' in the paintwork ;-)
