Question Dents

Does anyone have an idea of how to remove small dent around the A-pillar section of the EVO.

Dent place said my options where to drill a hole so they could fix it. No way am I putting holes in my new car.

They also said I could go to a body shop but I don't want the car being painted this early either for something minor.

Just looking for some ideas. I will probably have to end up living with it.

IMO, one hole in the door jam looks better than any dent.

True, I would just hate having the hole there.

they will plug it with a plastic cap...make it look like it is supposed to be there. Dent guys also have these guns where they glue this peg down in the middle of the dent and then take the gun thing that pulls on the peg and pops the dent out. so no drilling or taking apart of your car is needed. A good dent guy will have those tools.

Went to three different places two told me they couldn’t do anything so I end up at Dent Wizard and they did a great job. It took them about 2 hours to get the dents out. Well worth it though my car looks new again. Thanks for the info.
