yeah, some places/people do a per panel fee (usually like 80-120 a panel), which isn't bad if you have multiple per panel

FIND and take it to a Paintless Dent Removal expert, pay their price per panel like mentioned above and move on with life. Don't expect to be able to watch them do the work to you car either. They are dealing with deep trade ancient chinese secrets that they will not let ANYONE watch them do... Period!Comment

dry ice?
I have had a few dentless paint guys who cut a huge deal with me whenever they finished up at a car dealership. I guess when a dealership gets a load of used cars they hire these guys at a days rates so sometimes they have extra time if they finish early and looks for sidejobs. But I still said no cause I am R3ved broke.sigpicComment

There are many different methods to PDR.. I've used a guy thats supposedly one of the best around Atlanta, I've seen him do at least 5 cars and I wouldn't try it. There is A LOT to it and it's not something you can just do in your driveway with a toilet plunger, dry ice, etc..- '88 m54 coupe

All PDR specialist are grown, not born, into the same trade. They genectically, and instinctively, KNOW how to perform such miracles.

when I had a pretty decent dig taken out of the character line on my civic once, the guy let me watch, charged me $60, and left. It's not a difficult process, but you have to know where and how hard to push on the metal, etc.
It obviously takes a learned hand, wich is I why i would never try it myself.
