Anyone had any experience with P.D.R. Systems Inc. (Dents Unlimited?) or Dent King? I've heard good things, but no idea if it would work well for a little car like this.

Pending on the size of the dent, you can use dry ice to pop out the dent. You'd need warm weather for this to work, though. I guess a heat gun could work, maybe?

Nah, the dent isn't the same kind as this, it's over the passenger side rear wheel well - I'll talk to the guy that does it in the valley and update with some info.

I have a front fender with a dent that's actually 3 dents, 3 dents, yes 3 dents in one. I'll try that just for sh*ts and giggles. Thanks
PS Evo, do you spend all your time looking for videos like that? Kidding.

I will as soon as I sell my other car, I stretched myself a little thin buying this car before I sold the other one - but .. well .. I don't care. It's an mx3. I'm happy
Apparently it's $150 an hour - look at these pics my brother sent me:

What stops one from trying that themselves? I realize most panels are double layered, meaning pressing from the inside will only collapse a cavity, but if you can find true outer panels... giver a bit.

hmm nothing to lose - not like it'll make it look worse. Looks like he drills through to find access behind the panel and pushes out with a long screw driver or something else that is long and rigid. Rubber punch set & rubber mallet in one of the last pics?
