Paintless Dent Removal

Anyone have any recommendations for paintless dent removal on Long Island near JFK Airport? What has everyone seen as far as pricing? I’m wondering if there’s someone good out there without having to go through a dealer / body shop, which sublets the work and marks it up accordingly.

Try Fransisco at (718)556-2332
Dont know how good he is, haven't tried him yet. The hand wash I go to on Stilwell ave recommended him to me. Said he was good and charges about $150 per dent.

Thank you very much for the reply, but I was hoping for something south of $100. My nearest bodyshop charges $125 per panel and their work is very good. I have one dent on four seperate panels...

My car is in service for paintless dent removal and one of the panels involved is the hood. I just received a call from my advisor stating they’re not able to remove the dent on the hood because reinforcements are glued to the hood throughout the entire hood backing and they can’t drill an access hole. The dent is in a place I would think would be readily accessible. With the hood being highly susceptible to hail damage, etc., it seems crazy they’re not able to take care of this! Has anyone ever heard of this before? Thanks.

PDR hood

I own a paintless dent removal company on long island. We service many high-line dealers here on long island. I have a technician at Rallye BMW 5 days a week in the service drive from 7:00 am - 9:00 am . Unfortunately prices start at $160.00. I don't believe it would be a problem to access your dent, but would have to see it to be sure.

Hi Eddie,

It must've been your tech who attempted work on my hood then; small world!

I settled up with service, but the dent remains, slightly. Unfortunately, I was also left with scratches to the underside of my hood, which I’ve touched up with permanent marker.

Are you, yourself ever at Rallye or other dealers nearest JFK Airport? I'd like to get your own opinion on the matter.

Thanks!

I have one of my techs at Hassel and we do Lakeview, but I am not there personally . If the dent was attempted at Rallye BMW and was not to your liking, I would like to see it personally and see if there is any way to improve it or remove it totally. Let me know.
Thanks again, Eddie
