Default Ding removal

Anyone know of somewhere to get just a small door ding removed?? I've been quoted 85 bucks for a ding about the size of a #2 pencil eraser, just curious if you guys know someone cheaper in So. Cal. Thanks.

I've been charged $70 a panel for up to 3 dings. $85 does not sound too far out of line.

Yeah, $85 sounds about right, give or take a couple bucks.

Usually you would do 3 or more *sigh* dings for somewhere around that price.

Is it possible we can do another Ding Repair day?

I got two in my driver door. Both quite shallow, one on the crease that runs a few inches from the top of the door, and one a few inches below that.

Can anybody suggest a good place to do some ding removals in the Irvine area? If not there, then in the San Gabriel Valley.

Man I have 5 dings on the passenger side and 3 on the driver and I've only owned it for 5 months. If anyone could suggest a good place in SD I would really appreciate it.

You know what, I talked to someone at Performance Nissan in Duarte and they said the ding removal they do is between 35 to 65 dollars. So far even 65 is the cheapest i've seen. The body shop i'll most likely take my car to next week, Haddicks in city of industry (for small paint chip caused by rock on hood) said they charge 65 bucks per panel, which isn't bad for those of you with more than 3 on 1 panel.
