HHR &dentless paint repair
just wanted to pass along some info regarding paintless dent repair.our beloved HHR recieved some left front fender damage from carless shopper &grocery cart. as the paint wasn;t damaged and only a 2" long crease i did some on-line searching and decided after a $450.00 quote from bodyshop to try the paintless method,&to my surprize my local chev dealer whom i bought from new does this type of repair as well as conventional. ileft it with him to-day &just got it back and for $89.00 the job was flaw less,cannot find a trace of previous damage at all.plus saved myself close to $400 plus tax.i was very sceptable ,but not anymore. hope this post helps anyone else who may have dilema like i was in .

No, not at all. Found a place in Swartz Creek with some good reviews, even had a 10% $100 or more coupon on their website. Might be worth looking into.
Yeah, don't lean on the hood. I used to to wash the windshield, well now I have two pea sized dents from where my belly was!
Of course it's more noticeable with the metallic in the paint...

For some reason, my SS seems to be a dent magnet. I have had many door dents removed by my local guy as well as a major dent in the rear lift gate from my kid(s) shoving on the rear beauty bar to latch the rear hatch.
Each time he does it, he only charges $85 per panel, even if there are multiple dents in one panel. Once done, I can't even see them! And that's on a black car.
I would suggest you get some references, but defiantly worth it if you have someone who is good. It is a fraction of the cost of a body shop.
