Important

Prices are examples only. Final cost depends on the vehicle and extent of damage. Paint finish, panel access, parts and the number of areas involved all change the final figure. Photos let us give you a proper answer rather than a guess.

What affects the price

Why two similar dents can cost different amounts

It comes down to how much preparation and paint the repair needs, not how bad the damage looks in a photo.

  • Size & depth

    A shallow scuff and a creased panel need very different preparation.

  • Paint finish

    Metallics and pearls need blending into surrounding panels.

  • Panels involved

    Damage crossing two or three panels takes longer to finish.

  • Parts needed

    Most repairs need none. Occasionally a trim or clip is required.
