I hit a post and dented the front side panel of my Honda. Didn't want to get the insurance company into it because it was my fault. Went to the Honda dealer who sent me elsewhere. Their estimate was $575 (which he later reduced to $499) and three days to repair. I said no, too much. This place recommended Galen's Paintless Dent Repair & Body Shop. Galen is a very nice man with a small shop. He quoted me $200 and one day. Made the appointment for the following week. I drove my car to his shop; he drove me home because I had no ride, then took the car back and made the repairs. HE ALSO PAINTS THE FINISHED REPAIR. Don't let the name of his company put you off. The repaired front quarter panel looks perfect; as if it just came out of the factory. The frame part underneath is not quite flush with the metal, though, about 1/4" lower at the front. I am going to try to super glue it up where it belongs. It is not noticeable, though. I just want it to be more like it is supposed to be.The bumper below the panel has some scrapes that he painted over with a brush. Doesn't look bad. The original body shop said they would do the same thing.I am absolutely delighted with the whole job! The price was fantastic and his service is 100% good. I hope not to get any more dents, but if I do, I will return to Galen's shop.
