super small crease!!!!!
Ok here goes, i have a very very small shallow crease on top edge of one my front fenders and i mean small. the only way to see it is to look down the side of the car from the side. i didn't notice this until i got the car home from buying it, and i think it probably was done sometime in time when the car was owned by the preveious owner. maybe even when serviced ( liked someone leaned over the fender) to service the motor. i heard the lexus dealers have a independent person come and fix these kind of dents or creases with no body work being done. i also heard that they use nitrogen for the process is this true? if anyone here knows how to fix this without screwing my paint up i would really appreciate it. Thanks, Joe :eek:

The guys around here are called DentPro and yes, my Lexus dealer uses them and I had three or four small dings taken out while my car was in for service, including two in the roof (don't ask). From what I have seen, results are exactly as advertised. Panels are straight and you can't tell where the dents were. I am not sure what technology they use but I know they have to get access to the opposite of the dent. The Lexus mechanics removed and reinstalled the headliner, the dent guys just did the dents. While not cheap (around $400 in my case) it is cheaper than a conventional body shop and there is no worrying about matching paint. All in all, pretty pleased.

Paintless Dent Repair
sp sp sp
I had a tea spoon sized dent with a crease left for me on my month old GS 300, and was very upset. Through research on the net, I found "Superior Dent Removal", who happen to be the manufacturer of paintless dent repair tools as well instructors of this art. I
called and made an appointment with Alex (an instructor), for repair of my dent. He removed it within 20 minutes, using my car as a hands on lesson in front of new students. Excellent results!!!
Call them @ 888-992-3464, or 800-641-6729. They can set you up with one of their dealers ( or may be you'll be lucky like myself, and have one of the masters make the remarkable repair. This cost me $65.00. Mention you are a member of Club Lexus, and will post them and your dent repair results and I'm sure they will treat you likewise. Tell them Wayne with the silver "GS" sent you!!

I just used paintless dent removal on two super small dings on my driver's side door. To do it, the guy took really thin rods with hook-looking things on the end...and with "a hundred tiny pushes", they literally massage the dents out. Plus, like said above, it only took about twenty minutes, and he did it for $50 cash!!
