So I don't use my Z much in the winter it spends most of its time covered up on the drive ,maybe twice a month I will take the covers off give her a good check over start the car and make sure everything is ok
Today was one of those days took the covers off and to my horror find a brand new dent right in the middle of the bonnet :thumbsdown:
I have no idea how it got there nobody in the family has any idea either the car hasn't been on the road since the end of October when the body work was perfect !!!!!
I must admit it has pi##ed me off a little bit if only I could squeeze it in the garage :|
With a bit of luck my Dent Man can get it out but it's right above one of the bonnet braces I can get my finger in and feel where it is so hopefully they will be able to do something
 
That location might actually help as it will give the dent man something to lever against. My only concern is that the bonnet is aluminium and I'm not sure how well it responds to pdr.

Had a dent taken out of the bonnet on my previous Z using pdr. It took a bit more effort than usual, but definitely possible :thumbsup:

Fingers crossed hopefully get it done in the new year
 
Our Reno Clio 1.2 runabout had dent in centre of bonnet right underneath strengthener - dent man drilled the reinf steel, removed the dent and then painted the drill hole. No dent, cannot see it's not a factory hole from beneath so a cracking job. £40 bargain.

Dent man will win, don't panic
 



Dent Man worked he's Magic for £40! !! happy with the result dent almost completely disappeared I would say 99% gone you would really have to look hard to find it
 
i need a dent man myself, found 1 in rear quarter panel

is it sometimes ok for a man to cry like a baby?

does that mean he's very dear or he's reasonable lol

who and where is he?
 
Wouldn't use a dent man who wears a watch and puts the buckle on the bonnet to be honest.
I was a Detailer for many years and wore no Jewellry at all.

Can get the dent out but risk scratching that lovely paintwork..Big no no for me...
 
Any recommendations for dent removal in sussex(Brighton or Crawley area)?
I have a couple in my passenger door, annoys me every time I wash the car!

To be honest never notice the watch but good tip for in the future :thumbsup: he didn't scratch the bonnet luckily
 
40£!? Thats cheap :o Here whereI live those kind of repairs starts with about 150£ for the first dent, then a little cheaper for next and so on...
