Oh by the way, we can very well fix creases and edges, just depends of coarse who's the tech and how experienced he is. This is very much considerd an art. Check out my photo gallery and you'll believe.

Hey denttime, are you back on your feet now? Sorry you've been out of commission.
Your site shows some great pix, and if I hadn't seen this in person, I'd still be a doubter...

Pix coming - promise.

OK, here we go...

Before shot




After #1



After #2



Completely gone, sans the little chip which I might touch-up...

So, if you have any doubts...

Back on my feet? I'm sorry but I don't follow? If you want to check out how it's done in real time, watch my video demo on the paintless dent repair page. I'm removing a 7" crease accross the curve of a 06 maserati.

Oops - sorry. I got an email from a guy who does this in LA and I thought it was you - you all have such similar names that I mixed you up.
Apologies.
Yes, I saw your site, but I got your email after I had mine done.

There are plenty in the LA area - all of them mentioned in this thread cover LA, and the Beach Cities guys (Mark) came to my office in Santa Monica.
Did the job in ~40 minutes.
One thing: he did drill a hole and plug it in my door jam - my choice. He said the tC window seals are pretty tight and didn't want to risk damaging the window, etc. Looks fine. There's already some factory plugs anyway, so...

Highly recommend the service. I imagine that some of the other guys mentioned here also do nice work.
For me, I had to get it done ASAP as I'm a tad **** (shocking, I know) and looking at it was killing me.

Yep, that's the reason I started the thread. I got mine fixed the day after I got the ding....I couldn't stand to look at it. When I saw what Jeff could do at Beach Cities, I wanted to pass it along.

Also,....here is a process to fix the chip so that is also not noticeable. (It takes being somewhat **** to go to the trouble rather than just using a toothpick and some touch up paint.)

scott, (and others), it happened again! some folk just don't care what they do to the car parked next to them. apparently i'm too freakin' **** because it was sunday and i couldn't get it fixed for a day and it killed me.
this time only 85 bucks because i'd been there before. some photos:





whew my tC is back to normal....knock on wood. i don't know why i ruminate about a ding so much....maybe it's because of how large the door area is and how noticeable a ding is, but when it was repaired my blood pressure went down a few points. (i'm apparently shallow).

SC: DUDE! So glad you got it fixed (again)
Those guys work miracles - and I totally relate - can't leave one of those dings there for any longer than it takes to call them out!

Hey, maybe they send out people to ding our doors for business?

Fortunately we don't have to damage other peoples cars because we're too busy fixing the ones who damage their own. Besides, that's not very ethical.

I know Jeff and yes he does very good work. I do PDR in San Diego. If you guys ever want to see how it done? Just check out my video demonstration on a 06 Maserati http://denttime.com/service.htm

Denttime - it was a JOKE MAN!
Seriously, look for the smileys - do you think I'd use and recommend someone if I believed that?
Hell no.
Besides, I already admitted that I was the dipstick that dented mine!

Calm down. I know you weren't serious. I was being sarcastic with my reply.

Anyone know any good ding and dent removal people in Middle Georgia (Macon, Warner Robins) ??? A few weeks ago I was driving my xB back from Missouri where I bought it and I was 15-20 minutes from home (after nearly 13 hours of driving) and got two road dings on the hood from a flatbed semi that shot past me.
