The worst part is it is about 1 on most panels, and then 4-5 on the hood. 1 is pretty bad but the others are just lots of little ones all around.

I hope PDR can get them out without issue, I would be a shame to have to "live with it".

I'd hate to have to match that paint color if I was still in the autobody biz....... *shudder*

sun consider yourself lucky. I stopped counting @ 100 on the hood alone on my wife vue. the adjuster wanted to cut the roof and replace the entire roof. the rental HHR was just as bad. Enterprise was none to pleased....

Yeah I am worried about ever having to match the paint.


Marc wow that is horrible. What can enterprise say you can't control the weather. I am more mad that my dad had stored stuff in my garage without asking and I couldn't get my car in it.

I have to cough up the 100 bucks for comp claim with my insurance company. but I plan on trying to pass the loss onto the insurance company who was responsible for my accident. if they had settled the claim in a timely manner it would not had happened. going on 4 weeks and still no check.... I had just gotten my new HHR and it was in the garage get loaded up for the next day's activities. other wise it would have been hammered as well...

Well if it worked they must have been really small and not sharp dents. You would be the first that Ive heard of having any luck. Congrats, maybe your onto something.

I have been working on the Chevy's for Ken Dixon in Waldorf.

I've seen PDR take out dents that I was convinced couldn't be removed without body work. I had one taken out on my GTO and I was dumbfound. It's always worth a shot before you go for the body work. They will be able to tell you if there is hope. $100 is a lot better than $600-700.

cpope. It was not a major ding... but if you value your time...have a pro do it...:) Good PDR guys can work magic thats for sure. My black 94 impala had some ding right along a body line crease and it about 30 minutes you'd never know it was dinged....

PDR is pretty amazing. Ive fixed doors where body shops would have put a door skin on or replaced the door. Just takes time and patience.
