Shop it around to other PDR shops , this is really not a DIY without the correct tools and experience , you could actually make it worse. GL

There are excellent detailed steps on how to remove the front lights on the DIY section. Search for Angelibrights and you will find many a write up on this. Otherwise, check out www.angelibright.com and you can download instructions there as well. Good luck...

Why are they so expensive over there? I have a mate they does paintless dent removal, i get him to do all my cars.That dent can be removed by using glue sticks and pulled out and maybe finished off from behind with a bar. Then just carefully touch up the chip and flat and polish it. My mate does this for about ?10.

Cool

Thanks for everyones kind words. So I found today a guy on road that repairs dents he did an excellent job to the point where I cannot point out where I had the dent. This guy is an artist and it was all done for $100 cash. I'm glad my baby is fixed.

Good deal - You should inventory the "dent healer's" name and contact info in event other e60'ers in your province need work done by a reference-able craftsman.
