Hey Yall

Bloody white car slamed their door into my rear left door today leaving a 15 cm high dint in my door and a line of paint from their car on my door...

Paint came straight off no worries, but has left a crease mark and has really annoyed me...

Im so pissed right now, must have been very intentional to do so much damage... Bastards...

(Need less to say no note left behind)

Im looking for someone who can hep me out with like a paint less dint removal???

Ive done it before with some of my older cars, but never with this one... I got charged an arm and a leg last time I did it so I dont want to go back to them...

Does anyone here do it, can you adivse on a good place to get it done cheap???

Brand new car, with a bloody dint... Arhhhhhh

is this on the SS?

yeah

15cm. must have been intentional to leave a crease that big.

yeah, its not a deep dint due to it being right near the edge of the door (stongest part of the door) but it sucks...

will be easy to fix, for a professional I mean... Id never try my hand at body works...

such a shame.. the first ding on a new car always shits you..

there is a group called "touchup guys"... I thought they were a fag company driving around in a van to touch up men, but it turns out they do dent removals.. so I didn't bother calling them... :D

might help you though..

I've seen their van around my area..

Yeah I copped a good dent from an old fag in a Tarago, nice and high up on my door, the prick was taking ages to park and even had his wife move a trolley so it didn't touch his "lovely" car, I had literally turned my back for 5 mins...massive white gouge and he'd fled the scene.

there is a few guys on the coast and you might find someone in brisbane under similar names.i used a guy from a mob called dent force here in marrochy, had 3 decent dings to get out but he got them.I think it was $60 a panel from memory.Or there is dent doctor too.

I just booked in for monday with http://www.undintit.com.au/

Will let you know how I go, but looking at website they do fixed price removal of $110 per panel onsite...

Im goona go with the "at thier workshop" option as its a 20% saving and close to the office... So tad over $80 per panel...

Everyone I called was $100+ per panel and even more for onsite repair, or over $70 per dent...

I called and said, I have two dents almost the same on both rear doors, he said oh we will take care of you to keep it under $200...

So thats 4 dints repaired for under $200 (hopefully)...

And they are gonna look at a little mark in the rear right wheel arche which I only just found today after going over the car with a fine tooth combe...

So yeah, ill let you know...

ooh yeah let me know how it goes, my doors make me sad each time I look at them :P

and ROFL @ dent doctor...one of their guys "04DOC" gave it a squirt past me on the M1 yesterday, straight past a speed camera **fLaSh** he was too busy looking over my way and being a tool to see the massive 4WD almost protruding into the inside lane with "POLICE" written on it.

LOL

Yep, so due to the weather this morning I was unable to take any before photos...

And after photos are pointless....

CAUSE ITS LOOKS ALL BRAND NEW... :P

Worked out to be $220 total...

So im pretty happy with that, they were not the cheapest but they do have a really good rap...

+1 from me too...

Im calling them :P I have one dent in my merc, its like pen sized i hope they can get it out :D

Up their bumbs i dont like them. They want $110 to remove a dent smaller then a 5c coin, but its $110 if you have 50 dents in that panel. They charge per panel. They can suck my balllzzzzzzz

My mate Jason who works for Dent Magic i cannot recommend highly enough.

His prices are better too.

Ph: 0411674089

Tell him i sent you too

Thanks turbo_bitch lol I will give them a ring when I get some spare time.

so how was it?

my car has a dent too but i don't really want to pay 80 for removing a dent

or is 80 consider cheap?

Oh I haven't called yet I'm retardedly busy and planning a road trip so I'll give a ring when I come back, but $80 is about standard its gonna very be $10-$20 every else you call. I don't know why they charge so much for something that takes them less then 10 minutes to complete.

Don't wanna be rude to you Alex but they charge $80 for a reason, thats because they are professional at there field of work. Everyone can pop a dent out from a panel but do u have the right tools? If you have a stuff up who will fix it?

I work in the design industry where people easily pay me up to $150 an hour for my designs, my tools is my brain which everyone has so why do they pay me to do the design instead they can use there own for free? Thats because I can come up with things that you can't.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
