Damn door ding! hows dent wizard?
I had just fixed my car scratches, which cost me 3 grand through insurance. I go back to my car and I see a door ding. I don't even know how I saw it from far away, but I did. It didn't hurt my paint, but I am still ****ing angry. Inconsiderate people don't care and fling their dumbass car onto mine. I think my car is just a magnet for trouble. I had parked on those one side spots. I never dinged anyone else's car before. a-holes!
back to topic...Are there any ppl that used dent wizard in either manhattan or the long island area? I am afraid they won't do that good of a job. The body shop that I just used is great, but a bit on the pricey side. They quoted me $150.

that sucks. 
They are trained staff so they should be able to fix it for you just as about
as good as at any other dentwizard shop unless the ding is in a real tricky
location. $99 is what they usually charge.
I was laughing at this one shop called Carnica in my area that fixes small
dents cause their frikken shop is so damn small and crowded that you'll
probably end up with a new ding by the time they're done with the car.

will snake in their tools between the panels and massage out the dent.
If they have to drill an access hole in the door jamb, etc. they'll ask for
your permission first. Even if they did drill, they plug it up and
warranty their work.
The only time they use professional-grade suction cups is when there
is absoletly no way to access the dent from between the panels and
no way to drill an access hole... like on some car's roofs after hail damage.

park next to you and ding it or mash your bumper and run.
best solution is to get another car for your daily errands. that's the
only way.

I've actually heard good things about Dent Wizard. There are some dents that it actually works really well on, that you wouldn't be able to tell were there. And then there are dents on other cars that when you pull out the dent, it leaves a crease of where the ding was folded at. But hey! you can't expect it to do it all for yah!

...i think it really depends all on the place where the dent is exactly, some dents can be back to like 99.99999% brand new, but some will never be the same. I called dent wizard before but decided to just try those "as seen on tv" dent kits, and that had a decent result so I just decided not to go with them....
...has anyone had that metal tacking process dent puller thing done to their car? I don't know what its called, but I've seen it done once and was wondering how the results were. I guess its just they weld on a pin of some sort instead of drilling a hole... maybe that would be better? *shrugs*
