cheap door ding repair in NYC? (Queens/LI preferably)

see above.

The ding is minor on the driver-side fender. Could probably live with it, but if I can get it fixed for a reasonable price, I'll do it.

I have a great guy, and he did my whole car for less than that, he's very reasonably priced but his work is excellent. You have to go to him though, he's in North Haledon NJ.


His name is Marc his number is 973-865-5474 tell him you heard about him from the forums and he'll hook you up.

We are known for being the best. 20 years of business building that rep and being BMW factory trained and authorized since 1994. We are very proud of that.

We certainly do not claim to be the cheapest (and personally I would run as fast as I could from someone who did). The equipment and materials used in our business to do the correct job are very costly.

With that said we are also far from the most expensive and you will find our pricing (especially for forum members!) to be very comparable despite the end result being anything but!

Good work isn't cheap, and cheap work isn't good.

We do. It's all done by hand and pricing depends on the work needed to be done. Feel free to call/ email me for further info.

OP- there are many good PDR techs out there, but there are just as many hacks. Be selective on who you let work on your expensive BMW and check reputation and references before making your decision. Please avoid anyone advertising on craigslist. Expect to pay roughly $125 per panel for PDR. Good luck with your car!

if someone bashes in my car it's going to MAC for sure.

But I'm looking for some average joe who can smooth out a tiny (i mean tiny) door ding. Not looking to pay into the hundreds for that. Heck I might try one of those cheap ass door ding repair kits as it's on a flat panel and not sharply pushed in. Might do the trick.
