Repainting & Paintless Dent Removals

[JDM34]

Hey guys,

I've been browsing the forums for ages but I never actually got around to registering until a few weeks ago. I've recently started proceedings for importing an R34 25GT Skyline from Japan through J-Spec Imports. (It just needs to be transported to the RORO ship and sent to Australia and complied.)

Now, it's a pretty nice car and has 61,000km on it; it's completely stock standard except for the wheels and headunit (it also included a Japanese Navigation system as well which was a Panasonic). We had it inspected and mechanically it's an A1 car, and there's nothing wrong with the engine, clutch, brakes, accelerator, etc. It just has minor cosmetic damage which I want to get fixed up before having it registered and insured. I have a couple of pictures which show the shallow dents and scratches:

So, I was really just wondering if anyone could recommend someone who does paintless dent removals around Sydney for a competetive price? Or, can they be done by yourself by using various methods and such? I was also wondering about the scratches on the front bumper. Would it be worth having the front and back bumpers re-painted the same colour as the rest of the car, or just having the whole car re-painted? If it were to be re-painted, I was thinking possibly QM1 (Cloud White) or something. Is genuine QM1 hard to obtain these days, and how much does it cost to re-paint the whole car with QM1 paint?

Thanks a lot guys, it means a lot.
