These photos were taken by a lease company (prices 2005).
A dent on a near-side door. The red mark is 'paint transfer' from the car that caused the damage. A charge of £175+vat was incurred. (Prices have gone up and it is now £205+vat for a door)
Typically we could have removed this dent with PDR (Paintless Dent Removal) for £50 +vat. While the red coloured patch in the middle is probably paint transfer from the car that did the damage, this can be removed with some polish, we wouldn't charge extra for this.
If you have dent damage similar to that shown on this page and you are wondering if and how it can be repaired, and how much it will cost, upload a photo to Ask the Experts and we'll advise you - no obligation.
