Default Paintless dent removal

Anyone have a hookup on PDR in or around NYC. looking to get it done soon, but can't see how over 150 bucks a panel makes sense when there's only one ding on the panel.

Still kinda worth it when you consider the alternative is sanding, filler, more sanding, re-painting...

Updated: the guy I called yesterday night came up at my house on time. It took him around 35 minutes and the dent was gone. Amazing job. Money well spent

True, but prices shouldnt have gone up 500 percent since then.

You are completely correct, hence the reason why i want to do it this way, I just think the prices are near price gouging levels.
