it looks asthough someones tried driving through my car... ive got quite a large dent in my drivers side wing, hasnt broken or marked the paint, so im going to have a go at knocking it out myself i think?
any tips, i would go to a bodyshop, but i dont really want to spend much on it as i want rid in a couple of months.
ill get some pics up tomorrow, gutted.

dent devils are very good, highly recommend them
When you knock it back out the paint will more than likely crack. New wings aren't too much.
I would take it to a bodyshop to sort.

have to be careful when knocking dents out just in case the paint cracks, use some wood on were your gonna hammer will soften the blow a bit :y:
and as long as its not creased it should look ok

When i had my saxo some nice person put a hand-sized dent on the top of the drivers side wing. Got Chips Away out and the lad did a superb job of pushing it out, no signs whatsoever. Cost £60.

a little bit of paint has flaked off the bottom of the arch, cant believe it, not sure what to do now as i doubt very much that ill find a saxo the same colour as mine or even find a paint match somewhere. bollocks.

Yeah has anyone ever successfully removed a bonnet dent, mine is just above the grill but Ive been told its a problem cause they are double skinned?

If they are double skinned the only way you will get it gone is to fill and spray it the way I do and bodyshops do

Plunger or get a proper sucker i took a good dint out with a sucker poped right out however the faint marks will always be there unless the pros do it
