Need dent removal in Jersey!! Pics!!

Well this past weekend I had a few new dents added to my car. I was parked at a home depot and I'm pretty sure that a shopping cart hit my front passenger door and made 3 new dents (plus one existing). I originally believed that someone opened their door and caused the dent, but then I saw the two smaller ones directly below it and realized it had to be something else. Pictures 1, 3, and 4 are the new ones and picture 2 was the existing dent. I took it to a new Paintless Dent Removal place that just opened near my house and was quoted 145(roundabout) for all 4 dents. Does anyone know a PDR place in south jersey that may charge less or does this sound like a fair price?



another shot...

I just had some removed (paintless removal) on my driver side door. It was $75 plus tax, done by dealership body shop. It didn't take the guy that long to do and I couldn't tell where it was. They did a good job.

I cringe when I see that on other cars. But you got 4... I'm gonna have nightmares now.

Good luck getting it fixed.

I know what you mean, I'm almost embarassed to drive it around like that....The worst part is that theoretically insurance would cover it, but my deductible is like 750, far more that what it will cost to fix it. I'll post pictures after I get it fixed, hopefully it will look like new.

hey man, thats a decent price. i had 3 really bad dents, all in really hard to get spots. i took it to a few body shops, and they all said i need to replace the panels...i found a PDR guy out here in bordentown that works on all the dealerships in the princeton area. he took all 3 out for $150, and you cant even see any evidence of them ever being there.

They use special tools (when they have to) to push the dent out from the back of the panel.

good luck getting it fixed soon. I was at home depot myself on Memorial Day, I was surprised to see the amount of old people there that I did. Needless to say, i parked far as hell away from everyone.

Dent Wizards in Fort Lee does an excellent job.
