Talking Ding repaired!! pictures

Dont know how it happened because i baby my Z and am very careful of where i park, however, it finally happened after 4 years. Because of the location of the ding(no access behind the sheet metal behind the plastic panels), size and depth, i began to worry whether it was possible to get it fixed
Anyway, i contacted and sent pictures of the damage to David (dent repair tech) and assured me that it was fixable(there was a sigh of relief). The guy is awesome and highly recommended. Was very careful and professional throughout the entire process and did not halfa$$ it. Best part is that he came to my job in Burbank and fixed on the spot.

^^ +1!

I baby mine, too, but these dents are inevitable. There will always be A-holes out there. How much did this run you?

i paid $125 but it was very well worth it though

THe max cost was due to the location of the ding. There is NO access to the backside of the sheet metal from the inside. the only way he was able to do this was by removing the wheel and making a .25" diameter hole
(plugged afterwards) inside through the wheel well to gain access between the sandwiched panels. Any other panels such as fenders, doors, hoods etc... are cheaper in price.
