As an Idea on price, generally they charge around $100 for the fist dent, $50 for each dent after.
Split the first $50 by how many people, so with 5 should save upwards of $40 each ;)

"Paintless dent removal" means they can pull out a dent without redoing the paint, so it's pointless if the paint is cracked/scratched/chipped.

Was recommended Vincent from Mr. Dent (0418538117) and he told me he charges $60-70 per panel, regardless of how many dents on that panel. He's done a few Ferraris that I know of, so I'm sure he's good :) if everyone's happy with that we will just go with him; but definitely open to suggestions.

We will hold it on a Saturday morning (date TBA), in Heidelberg.

Is anything happening with this, or don't we have the numbers?

Will happen, just waiting on someone who apparently has another lead.

A mate of mine John works for himself and he's based out of Clayton. His business is: http://www.pdrtek.com.au. It's worthwhile asking him?

I actually asked the panel guys I went to see after the bingle for insurance quotes about doing a chip session, and apparently if it's in the middle of a panel, they just need to do the panel (paint blending), but if it's at the edge of a panel they need to do that panel and the adjacent to blend properly. not sure if it was guff or not but the figures quoted to get a chip fixed on mine were about the $300-$400 mark (per panel).

Guys,

I will be interested as I have recently acquired a series of 3 small dents in the driver's side rear passenger door.

I have sent enquiry emails to two of the contacts posted and waiting for feedback. Will keep you posted on their response (if any).

Kind Regards,

Mark.
