I have used Dent Wizard. Took about about 20+ dents from hail on my hood, trunk lid, and roof. It cost me around $1,060. I'd give them a 90-95% rating. It's a hit or miss with Dent Wizard I think since it seems like auto body shops just pay to be affiliated with the Dent Wizard brand and probably there is no set pricing. I'm pretty sure a dealership on Dent Wizard's list of shops will charge more.

Bruno at Dent Wizard in Leonia has worked on # of my cars over the years, including a 2003 M5, and he is the best. Meticulous and diligent. Just a few min past GW Bridge in NJ. Let me know if you need his cell.

got it done at dent wizard from Mercedes benz they did a good job. i mean it was literally the size of a nickel so it would've been hard for them to eff it up. Plus they only charged me 75 bucks and took no more then 20mins.

The typical going rate is $80/dent. I was rotfl when I called a couple of Craigslist amateurs and sent them pics on the damage and they quoted me $200. Most of them sounding like they had no idea what they were doing.

By the way, Dent Wizard put a ton of scratches on my car. But I guess it wasn't a big deal for me since they're minor and a good detail should take them out...

MAC does a great job with dent removal. It was a dent I put in the car myself though when I slipped on ice last year and fell on my car

There is a place near my house called Dent Doctor NY in Whitestone, they seem very expensive though. Had a dime-sized ding on the flat area of one of my doors in one of my old cars and they wanted $150 for it. BMW tax maybe?

I will pm you... I have been trying to get a pdr for a month now. Emailed tristate dent removal with pics, no response. Called them, they never called back.
Another guy Chris from here http://www.precisiondentremoval.com/process.html
he said he would be in the Clifton area on 2 occasions and at the last minute he said he couldn't make it. so screw that. I need someone that can take care of 2 small dents and a larger one like the size of a hand.
