Highly recommend Philan Dent Express!!!

The corner of my rear bumper got dented in at the bottom. I brought it to Car Spa in Mississauga and they told me they would have to remove the bumper and including painting it would cost $480 + tax. And I would have to leave the car for a couple of days. They mentioned that a lot of paint would peel of the bumper.

I brought it to Philan Dent Express (Matheson Blvd E/Dixie Rd) and wow, he did an amazing job. For $60 he pulled out my bumper back to its original shape without removing the bumper .... in 10 minutes. no paint peeled off. There are of course scrape/gouge marks but the point is that the bumper is back to its original shape. He gave me a number of a mobile paint guy that would smooth that area area out and paint for about $120. I put some touch-up paint in the area this evening. I will look at it in the morning. I can probably get away without painting it as the color is black and it is in the lower corner of the rear bumper.

Again, I highly recommend him.

He did my hood and brought it back to 98%. My only complaint was after he tried to spot buff the area he repaired without properly clay bar'ing the area. I ended up with lots of buffer trails in the paint. I'm sure it can be repaired but just something I wasn't expecting to deal with.

Like most PDr guys he is likely using a drill with a foam attachment to buff. It will remove the scratched he leaves behind but will also leave nasty looking trails. Just have them removed properly by a good detailer, odds are it will only take a minute or two.
