FIX A DENT GUYS ?

[Saltire]

i have a dent on my bunnit, lol, its like the size a football would make.

Does anyone know of any guys that are good at pulling dents out ? ive heard its possible nowdays, dunno though. the skin aint broke etc, cant think of how it happened, cant see a football making a dent like that from a ball falling on it, maybe it was an idiot jumping on it or punching it etc, hard to say, plus its raining, so its even harder to tell, anyways, no sense moaning, whats done is done, lol.

Iam in central scotland area if anyone knows a good Dent guy they can recommend.

and could i possibly make it worse trying this method ??

ok guys, i got a few pictures of the dent, its hard to take pictures of a dent cause of reflections etc, i think the photos show it well enough but they make it look a bit worse than it actually is.

(still cant figure out what the hell would have made a dent like that).

p.s

[Dreamer]

yea, lol, i thought it looked like two too, hmmm, surley dents wouldnt occur if some dafty was sitting on a car bonnet anyway ??

more importantly, do they look as though they could be pulled out ?

[krazylegz]

they dont look that bad as the skin isnt broken or split, but i'd still take it to a few bodyshops and get prices for them to do it properly

aye something like that lol.

it might pull, but its a case if you pull it out and the skin splits when doing it, you're ~~~~ed, whereas if you're paying someone to do it and it splits they'll have to paint it;)

Have a look here YouTube - Car Dent Removal with Hair Dryer and Compressed Air (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=miNykNl-0NM&feature=related)

The only guaranteed method is to pay a professional to do the job, but what have you got to lose by trying yourself? It will still need fixed if it doesn't work.

ok, thanks guys, looks like i'll defo have to be calling one of those mobile guys out then and/or take it to a body shop.

youz got any ideas of prices for a job like that if it was like the worst scenario or best scenario ?

I used a mobile company called "dentmasters" 4-5yrs ago to remove 2 trolley "dings" and a door "crease" approx 2cm deep X 15cm dia , all down one side of my 2002 mondeo.
It took him 2hrs or so , he made an invisible job and charged ?80 .
I don't know if they're nationwide (i'm in Cheshire) , but well worth a look , good job !
