If it isn't too deep you could get paintless dent removal pretty cheap.. maybe $50?
yeah, it could be a little more tho, as with anything shop and call around.
We have a Dent Wizard out here, and they are pretty cheap because they don't paint the car just take out the dent. If the dent will not come out totally they will tell you. Check around if you have anything like Dent Wizard. Plus you get the car back the same day.
yeah we have dent master here . pretty cheap and do a good job
Hmm... I wonder how much it would cost to get all of my door dings out.
anyone else seen the thing on the TV infomercial that looked like a big suction cup and supposedly pulled out car dents? I have one on the fender from a pedestrian :rolleyes: and I'd really like to get it out.
A pedestrian, huh? A suction cup works best on large dents so it's hard to say.

I would not use a suction cup, my friend did and it worped the metal.
what kind of dents do these wizards pull? is it mostly big ones that just kinda pop out, or can they pull those tiny little door ding ones that make you want to kill?

No, they kick ass.. They can get all the small ones out of the panels.. There's a dent company around here.. They charge $55 per panel.. For that price, if I only had one dent in a panel, I'd probably put some more in it for fun.. B/c they do the whole panel for $55.. Anyway, check out the newest issue of Sport Compact Car, with the Project EG Civic on the front.. They did a lot of bodywork to it, including getting rid of a bunch of dents..

shit that things finally out? i been waiting on it forever, i was wondering what kind of mods they were doing to it, i think theres was a 92 dx, same as mine only mine is a horribly gay teal color, if they can gte 13s out of the b16a2 it they said they were gonna use on it then maybe i can take my sites of an ITR engine
$55 bucks a pannel isn't bad... unless you only have one dent. Unfortunately, I have about 1 dent per panel. :p

I know, I wait impatiently every month for that magazine to arrive in my mailbox..

Yeah, it's a blue DX hatch.. They dropped in a b16a1 with AEM intake, Apexi WS exhaust, an Edelbrock (I think) header.. They ran a 14.8 with it so far.. It has suspension work, and 16" SSR Competitions.. It's fuckin sweet.. Benen CF hood and front lip.. It's coming along nicely, haha
I paid 75 to have a tiny door ding removed...It was on the crease though so that made it harder to do. It looks great now though.

ill have to check it out
Yeah, Project Civic is a huge feature.. It's got 3 separate articles.. Bodywork, Suspension, and Motor swap.. It's like 3 issues of the project all crammed into one magazine..
sounds cool, ill probly just get it for the suspension part of it, see what works best for them, maybe bodywork will be of interest to me too, im kinda of leaning away froma b16a2 swap for mine cause its so common and i dont see as much potential in at as if i just swapped something more powerful from the start, are they painting it or are they keeping it that same blueish purple?

It's the same color.. They put H&R Cup kit (?) suspension on it, with some bars and stuff I think.. Wildwood enormous brake kit, haha, looks badass..
thx for the comments i was expecting it to b more cuz my friend had the dent the size of a small rock and they charged him 500 bucks to fix it
