    Dent-Masters PDR FTW

    Didn't know where to post this since there isnt a Paint and Body section so here it goes.

    Well I just got some work done from this guy from Dent-Masters, John Cole. A couple days ago my girl decided to close my passenger door with her foot a couple times. I looked around for a good Paintless Dent Removal guy and was recommended by a body shop who does all the body work for Nick Alexander BMW in Los Angeles. It turns he also does all the work for the Nick Alexander when they have cars with dings or dents.

    Here is what my car looked like with the footprints in the passenger door






    Then came Dent-masters to the rescue






    And the results...






    Luckily he was in the area when I called him. I took him about an hour and a half to finish the job. He said dents take longer but dings take about 5 min.

    Total cost:$125 he said his prices range from $100-$150 per panel but it always depends on the job. He's been paintless dent removing since '91.

    Heres his card:

    That looks pretty good! I also had some work done last year by Ding Master in Ventura (his name is Carl) and came out pretty good too. I can't remember how much I paid per panel cause he worked on 2 cars of my cars.

    That is some impressive work on your door by both the G/F and the dent removal guy. I'm guessing she got out her checkbook to pay for the body work?

    Does she still have feet?
    The girl friend?

    I broke up with a gal, she slammed the door so hard when she got out it sprung the entire door, never could get that fixed right...

    Im sure he can figure something out if he looks at it. I had mine bent in 3 times and pulled it out myself every single time

    I posted his Business Card on one of the photos. Feel free to call him and if he doesnt answer just leave a message and he'll get back to you.

    Yeah I just used some gloves to pull out the center. Then I used some vice grips/plyers to fold all the tabs to there appropiate places. I know it was kind of a ghetto fix but once I bought new aftermarket grills you could hardly tell that if had been bent in.

    I hope you didn't let the same girlfriend close the same door with her same foot??? If so, suggest you deposit your foot somewhere on her dented person.
