    Mobile paintless dent guy/gal in LA?

    Anybody know a good PDR person who can swing by my house (near USC) and get rid of some dings? Car's not running ATM so mobile is a must. I was putting off taking care of the dents for a later day but I'm super tired of looking at them all :crazy:

      Awesome, I will. What's your first name? Or just tell him your r3v username?

                Contact the guy I recommended. I don't know his exact area but he may be up for it.

                  Well, he got back to me. He can't do anything for my Benz, but he estimated $120 for one dent on my E30. Seems steep to me, but I have no experience with this stuff.

                    Anyone use this guy and have pics? I'm willing to go off the recommendation from Matt. Would be nice to see some before after photos from folks on here though.

                      $120 for 1 dent is steep. I paid $60 to PDR an entire panel.

                        I never did it, I wasnt willing to spend so much on a ding thats been there for 4+ years. Im used to it and would love to see it gone, but I expected it to be under $100max

                          My damage is on the rear qtr panel. Its actually kinda hard to see but its rather large area affected. How bad was the damage you had repaired? Where did you go?

                            Check his Instagram page. Tons of before & after photos.

                              I used guys on Craigslist. One guy was new to the area and ran a special. The other guy was local to me in san pedro and took out 8 dings from my door. No drilling or removing panels. Both had special tools including lamps and inflatable bladders. They also came to my house to do the work. I lost his number but I'm sure you can find someone with references.
