Before

After

This is a dent we repaired recently. The vehicle is a metallic blue Hyundai Excel Sprint with a dent near the driver's door handle, which happened at the local shopping centre. The customer was quoted $A250.00 by the local panel shop using body filler and repainting the door, plus it was going to take a few days - YUK!

We quoted $A85.00 and repaired it in the customer's driveway while she waited. The total time from start to finish was a few minutes, and the customer was very impressed. She has since recommended us to her friends for whom we've also removed dents.
$A85.00 FOR A FEW MINUTES WORK.
