GL with the repair. i am sure you are in good hands.
Kenchan, great news to report. The PDR specialist came right on time today
for removing the small 4 inch crease - small dent. The sounds were hard
to listen to as he beat and shaped the small crease - dent back into place.
The total price was 250.00 and it looks as good as new...The PDR specialist
ran a black light against the Pearl White paint looking for any imperfections.
None could be found.....But those dam sounds will keep me awake for a
few nights...Thank you again.

hahaha, yah that's a normal process to knock down the high points
after pressing out the crease.

good to hear everything turned out to your satisfaction.

I had a PDR guy come out to my house to take a few little dimples out of my hatch that the dealer swears he did not put there (he did).

The PDR guy worked in my garage which is a separate building, and he made me wait in the house while he worked. These guys are like magicians.

Did he leave you any special surprises?

I need to get PDR on a hood ding, it bugs me every time I see it.

I have a tiny dent in the driver side fender.. which did not chip the paint..just put a little divit there (its something that no one notices unless you point it out).

Its bothered me for quite a while.. have to research how much a PDR guy would charge to pop it out.
