Anyone use Dent Wizards? UPDATED ON 04-12-2012
I have an appointment with one this Thursday and I was wondering if anyone has used them and what their experience was. I have two small dings on each side of the car, only noticeable when looking at the car at an angle, but I want to fix them nonetheless.
Thanks! Last edited by BimmerCop; 04-12-2012 at 12:10 PM.. |

I have used dent wizard 3 times... first 2 were perfect (mystique blue metallic 5 series), the 3rd time was good (alpine white 3 series), i think the color of the car helps...

Also, does it take long to repair? What exactly is it they do to fix the small dents? |

As long as it's not on a crease I think it can be perfect...BMW metal is easy to work with from what I"m told. I even had one in the lower front corner of the driver door removed--even I thought that was impossible, because the door is very strong there and there is supposedly a rolled edge or something, they still fixed it! Not dent wizard but and indie who visits the dealership, free because I bought that protection pkg...

Ok guys, met with Dent Wizard today and I have to say it was a great experience.
My car had 4 dings, 1 on each door and 1 on each quarter panel. It took 2 guys approximately 5 minutes to get the job done. Unreal. As for the results, it looks like the dings were never there. As for the price, $150. Highly recommend Dent Wizards. |

My brother is in the pdr business. Results really depend on the skill of the person. My brother removed 50+ hail dings from my is300 and it is impossible to tell any work was done. He says the work is permanent.

i had an inci'dent' with my lemans blue 335 in FL where some one gave me a 'crater' of a door ding in the right rear quarter panel - took it to the stealership to see if they could help, they recommended a local body shop... who 'had a guy' who would be in on Thursday and could repair it 'good as new' for $125... looked into dent wizard and found they provided services to several local dealers and body shops, but also found a retail shop less than a block away from the body shop, and he said the same thing $125, except he'd do it on the spot in less than 1/2 hour...
the big thing that worked in my favor was that they guy who door dinged me had plastic edging on his door - the ding did not break the clear coat. I got the feeling that for 'dings' and 'dents' then dent wizard is an excellent choice - where scratches are involved - gotta find a good body shop that can match the paint color... good luck!!! the parking job the crater all better I hope it looks as good 5 years from now... |

I used them on the wife's previous kid hauler. She hit a Deer that about caved in the front fender. It was good enough for a lease turn in...otherwise I needed a new fender!!
