said for 50 bucks cash i'll never know it was there. 20 minutes and 50 bucks later
It was 99.9999% gone. only the memory remains.
This guy had mirrors and alignment tool all sorts of strange looking intruments.


You car looks great. i know its hard but just keep it clean like that and soon you will forget or get used to it...after 4 days i was used to mine.
i almost didn't do it for fear of making it worse. i got lucky!

and i never told the tuner. you know they hate whining, ( even though i had every right to) i'll bet there is a dentman or something in your area. ask around.

That looks as though a suction pull would do it!

I say if it bothers you , find a dent medic or dent removal....i think your looking at 75 bucks and no more stomach aches!!

I was so Pissed off. but now its gone. really mine came out 100%.....you can't see jack from any angle.

Look into it. i beleive you can have a dent free car for years. So long as you are always with the car!!
If someone jacked my car up while working on it they're going to get an earful and better refund me a crap ton after they fix the problem or pay for someone else to fix it. They'd be lucky if I didn't get myself a lawyer and sue them. That's unacceptable no matter how you figure it.

you are right!..it gives it character!..gotta remember!..10 years from now
even if you take care of it 100%,as long as it is driven,you will have little imperfections all over it!..it's a car!..transportation!..hopefully it WILL age gracefully!

I can see the dent in the picture. You are right,it is pretty noticeable. If it were mine,I would take it to the body shop immediately.

the hassle of proving it...if you didn't catch it when they gave it back to you

is more trouble , than a paintless dent removal

I highly suggest you go this route.

Like you i love my car. but to squable over 50$..... was a stratigy.

the tuner offered me more tweeking on the dyno and sice he did the whole package
2300, intake , headers, plugs wires suspension and brakes...

people are inperfect creatures... after spending 10k i wanted them to be nice to me

and considering 10k in mods...stat wires plug ect....50 bucks is nothing.

anything under a 100$ to fix , i'd suck it up, if it bothers you so much.

i was, as i said, really pissed, but as i said once you leave the shop, the hassle of proving they did it is far more in $'s to prove.

Car looks cherry!! try the suction cup device available at most auto parts store.


My V has a nick or 2, so does my SS.. but no dents....or you can highly polish that area so its brilliant shine make it far less noticable

On a quick scan, i didn't see anything.. and so too will others.

Get a dent medic, dentman...they are franchised, and they learn the right way to do it

good luck, my fellow Camaro friend. remeber although us men give our cars a high priority.... i seriously doubt anyone will see it from the 3 foot distance.

if i can't see the imperfection at 3 feet.....i don't fret.

mine was a crease like a door opened on the front wheel well arch. i could see it from 20 feet away. So i did it.

fix it! using a paintles dent removal..these guy DO know what they are doing!
