I got an ugly one last week that I thought I could live with but it makes me mad every time I see it (obtained in a very frustrating way) so I want to get estimates. Looking for someone who won't gouge me on labor and does good work. Will be paying out of pocket because I don't want it to impact my insurance rates.
Also, do you usually have to go without a car for a few days for something like this or can they do it in a few hours? It's a longish dent (crosses a door panel and then part of the rear body of the car). Not super deep but paint (not just clear coat) is gone in one section (about an inch in diameter). I think depending on cost I could live with the dent if someone can fix the paint and repair the clear coat.
