Dent Wizard

Have any if you guys ever used Dent Wizard? Is it quality work? And how expensive are they? I have like 3 quarter sized dings on my doors, and I was wondering how much it would cost me to get that shit fixed. Thanks!

I haven't used "Dent Wizard" per se, but I have used the paintless dent repair places before (we have one called Dent Magic here) and generally they will do good work, to where you'll never know the ding was there. Here in Austin, the first dent usually runs around $40, the 2nd $30, and $20 or for the third. Depends on the location of the dents of course.

Just don't watch them do the work, you will find it quite disturbing to watch someone hit your car repeatedly with a giant rubber hammer!!

I've used Dent Wizard numerous times and they have yet to disappoint me. You'll be very happy with the results. My price was $80 to have 2 little dings pulled out of my rear quarter panel.

I've used these paintless dent repairers many times in the past and they all do a great job. Sometimes the location of the dent may make it harder to remove completely but they have never ceased to dissapoint me.

as far as dent wizard is concerned, it is $75 per panel, so if you two dings are in one panel, it will only be $75, but if two different panels, $150. i believe WEBTOKER just went there last week to get some dents removed.

As a note, if you can find a recommendation from a friend who knows the guy with the longest "tenure" (most experience), you will be delighted. The Dent Wizard's down in Torrance has a guy named Mike Ford who has been doing this for years. He fixed some nasty dents mostly using some long metal bars. The work he did was perfect.

There are also some independents that some of the detailers use. These are guys who have been doing bodywork on classic (and other cars) for countless years, and will even do a panel (with multiple dents) for $50.

There are some really great ones out there -- try to get a good referral!

It works, and NO PAINT..........can't believe the Dent Doctor in Austin is so cheap. Here around Nashville it's $50-80 per dink removal.
