One more vote for them. I used a guy here in Phoenix who was absolutely amazing. He did our minivan and my E36 M3. On the M3, I had two severe roof dents from ramming my bike (on the rooftop bike rack) into the garage overhang (didn't hurt the bike a bit!).
The dents were in an area where the roof is double-skinned, so that there was no access from behind, usually impossible for dentless removal. He used a new tool that has a round, flat plastic face, and a bulbed stem on the back. He glued the flat face to the center of the dent area with hot glue, then used a slide hammer to lift and then remove the plastic piece from the roof. Each time he did this, it pulled the dent out slightly. When he got it to where it was slightly above the rest of the roofline, he then used his plastic tools and tapped it back to the correct height. No scratches, and no trace of the dent. Cost me $100, as compared to well over $1K for bodywork and paint to do the same. |
