Sorry to hear very annoying.

If it hasn’t broken the paint a dent specialist may be able to get the dents out?

Ouch. Just to hopefully make you feel a little better I managed to drop my fully loaded up BMW GSA on to my previous DB9. The handlebar put a hole through the front wing. It made me feel quite sick. Thankfully a fantastic body shop up norf fixed it.

Ouch sorry to hear that. My Vantage S is currently being resprayed by Luke at Chappell Coachworks in West Kingsdown, right by brands hatch. His number is: 01474 855503. Haven’t got mine back just yet but hope to in the next few weeks.

A dent guy may be able to do that. It's PDR where you glue pull the dent then hammer back down etc. Failing that, DB paint I would recommend in Ewhurst Green. 30 mins or so Sevenoaks though.

I can vouch for Phil Woods at Classic Car Restorations near Mereworth - 01622 815325.

Did superb repairs and bare-metal resprays on my 1977 V8 and Triumph Stag but also works on modern cars.

Thanks both for the sympathy. I felt pretty stupid and sick when it happened.

Pics below. Could a dent shop sort these out? Can anyone recommend a good one as I imagine there are some cowboys out there.



A decent PDR guy might sort that out.

I reckon that has a good chance of repair by a specialist dent company. I used Ryan at Fixadent on my DBS and he was fantastic. He pulls the dents out with a wonderful array of tools and manipulation. Highly specialist art.

Incredible job by Dent Rewind. I would have said the damage was far to severe for one of these dent wizards.

I watched our PDR guy working once. It was witchcraft I tell you.
