Car dented, any recommendations?

[pbirkett]

When I was out tonight, my neighbour reversed into my car, damaging the rear quarter... havent had chance to see the damage properly yet as it was dark but the neighbour has admitted liability....

Anyway, is there any good (cheapish) places anyone could recommend to sort it out.... searched before and insaneojackson recommended "dent king" but when i searched they are a sourthern company... but is there a local company who could sort it out?

Sorry to hear this matey, hope you get it sorted. Our shopping cart got reversed into recently and we got it sorted by Arnold Clark on scotswood road, have done a spot on job with matching paint etc, but admittedly it wasnt a dent as such.

Hi Sean, ended up going to Premier Vehicle Care in Heaton, who have had a look at it, and they have said that it will need a new rear quarter panel and the panel and door sprayed (pearlescent paint), and it will be quite expensive to put right.

A mate of mine has had work done by them and swears by their workmanship.

Just waiting for a proper quote by email.

Is it going through insurance, or out of your neighbour's pocket? I know an excellent bodyshop, but they're very, very pricey.

Also, email on its way to you.
