Paintless Dent Repair

Oh boy. I called a PDR guy on Monday and he came out and worked on our new BMW and the boxster too.

He removed a bunch of dents to the left and right of the roundel on the back trunk lid of the BMW (neither of us could figure out how it got five dents in that area of the car).

On the boxster, he took out two nasty door dings on the left rear fender plus some tiny ones on the wheel well and removed a crease that went from the intake vent to the wheel well on the right hand side.

I now feel like I bought a new BMW and my Porsche doesn't need a full tear down-quality paint job. I can live with it until this lousy economy turns around.

Total for both cars was $450. I could have negotiated him lower, but I decided not to so I could gripe all I wanted if necessary.

The deal with PDR is finding someone who has been doing it daily for a number of years so they do not screw up your paint. My guy has made a living doing it for the last 15 years.

It was a lot of fun to watch him work. Amazing really.
