He did a few other dents around the car for free that he pointed out as I said I would take a photo of him working and upload it to this forum and I would recommend him which I have no qualms doing as he really has done an excellent job. In all he hammered out around 10 dents and was working on the car for around 3 hrs. £220 (Not vat registered) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Araf Posted July 8, 2020 Report Share Posted July 8, 2020 In other groups, we used to have dent meets - where everyone meets at a place convenient to the dent remover, then he works on all cars while everyone chats. Good for the dent remover as he has no travelling time between clients and therefore cheaper for car owners as they don't pay for his travelling. Last time I did one, it was about £40 a dent. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menoporsche Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 I was told that a couple of dent guys fly from Portugal to Finland in about March, presumably at the end of the icy winter, they make as much money in a month as they do here in the rest of the year.

the baron Posted July 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Ive sounded it out with Matt and he's up for a sally pussy meet when we are out of lockdown, so I will post something up when I have more details and can confirm a date, will need videos of your dents so Matt knows what he's letting himself in for, he will do a Stella discount too 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
