Well, I'm getting my Stalker body kit put on and the guy at the body shop noticed a small, but somewhat noticable dent in my passenger fender. Does anyone know if this will be able to easily be rolled out? Or pushed out maybe? Will the paint hold? I don't really want to re-paint the fender, aside from painting the stalker items, I want to keep everything else stock paint. If anyone here has had a ding or anything like that please respond to how much and how it was fixed.. thanks guys!

we depending on where the dent is, will depend on whether or not this will work. wait until a really hot day when the metal where the dent is gets exposed to the heat for a long period of time. when it is nice & hot go inside & get a ice cube or 2 & rub the ice cube over the dent. the temperature change will cause the metal to retract. you know the principle that heated things expand, cold things retract, same thing works here

i had a dent in the back fender about two in. long. i paid 200 bucks to get it pulled out and repainted. by the way its hard to do a body kit and not blend it in with the rest of the car. how are you not going to paint over the factory paint?

Well.. I'm getting it professionally done and it's an easy color (UA Black Clearcoat) So he said it would be pointless to do the entire car. As far as this dent goes.. it's the only thing depressing me at the current moment. I guess I'll wait till the body kit is on, the guy doing the body kit told me I could get it out for $75.00 by this place he knows.. but I don't think they re-paint.. it's not a deep dent at all, but when the cars nice and waxed it's kinda noticable (shiny) so I'm probably going to give that place a try, and maybe try out that ice cube trick. Thanks guys.
