google paintless dent and find a guy near by

But it has angle on it would it still work?

mxl180 07-05-2010 01:07 PM

All dents have an angle... If it doesn't have a angle it would be flat, if it's flat it would not contain a dent! Jeez Louise!

Picture
 
The picture doesn't work. You need to upload it to a photo hosting site like Photobucket or similar.

And by angle I'm sure he means a crease. If that's the case, he's not going to be able to have it removed by a paintless dent repair guy.

Sorry, yes a crease. Why would i be talking about the angle of the dent?

Will need a new hatch at least. These cannot be repaired. Gonna cost you.

A new hatch is $450 plus tax, online discounted is $350 plus shipping
Figure about $250 base/clearcoat painting.
So get it painted, and have your buddies help you hang the hatch.

If its just a crease, then you shouldn't pay more the $300 for the whole job!

Thank you everyone! Sorry about the mess of a message. I tried to put the picture in it but i didn't so i tried again haha. Whoops. But only $450 for the whole hatch painted? I thought it was going to be more.
By the way you guys are really helpful, I created an account on this website just for this one thing to ask and you guys seem very knowledgeable! Just what I needed.
