Well, 2 weeks away from owning my first garage I got a big enough storm that I have some very minor hail damage I went to a paintless dent repair place and they said it would cost 960 bucks! Another guy told me under 500, so I think I'm getting screwed. My car is flawless in terms of how it looks so this is annoying. I've heard that dry ice can work and my dents are very minor and extremely shallow...some people have told me that it does work and some have said that it's a myth? What about dent remover or dent pullers you can get online or other places? Let me know what you think or if I'm better off having somebody do it.

I just pulled a huge dent on my sisters car..but that required drilling, heat gun, sanding, bondo, and repainting... No insurance for the hail damage I take it? Shop around more for a good PDR specialists

Insurance deductible is 500. Like I said the dents are very minor and shallow..I can't afford drilling into my car that scares me hah

It hailed around Indy a few weeks ago and my sisters Trailblazer had roughly 2K in damages, and her neighbors escape had 5800.
