Dent Removal

There are several links on the Net that talk about how to remove a dent from your car with a hair dryer and a can of air duster. There's another that uses dry ice. Anyone have success with these?

never worked for me
but I highly recommend 'Dent Doctor' type places, if they can get to the area from the rear.
No painting is involved or needed, cost in the past for me has been $85-120

Or if it's in the right spot on your door, get some body side molding to cover it up.

Sorry that the car is so dirty, but here's what mine ended up looking like after the install.

+1 take it to a PDR tech.

your dealer usually contracts a mobile PDR technician to do their used cars so just call your dealer and schedule a 'paintless dent removal' or PDR.

in my case, i do it at home.
