Dent Removal

Hey guys,
Is there any place that can remove some dents in my ford explorer passenger side that will do this at a pretty cheap price. I am planning on trading this in very soon and want to maximize the appraisal value.
Let me know,
Tom

Re: Dent Removal

There's no such thing as cheap PDR when there's been hail this year, prices get a little better when the weather has been good. I'd just call a couple of places and ask what they charge per panel.

Re: Dent Removal

Re: Dent Removal

Yup, supply and demand, Call a few places, I've found PDR is about $60-100 per dent.

wow... thats it? If that is the case then i would definitly pay to have that fixed. The guy at the dealer said it would drop the value $2000. HAHA.
I know there isnt any frame damage, its purely cosmetic as i hit a parking lot beam cutting a corner a little too sharp. slaps head.

Re: Dent Removal

Thats for small dents, anything bigger than your fist and it will sart getting more expensive. It really hard to know for sure. The PDR company really has to look at it to know for sure. The dealer will always be expensive though

Re: Dent Removal

Would maaco be the best price for the dent removal? (Remember this is just going to be traded in).
