dude, I heard that those places (sometimes) put a hole and plug it up in order to remove the dent. Until I find out how they really do it, I ain't going to those places. Anyone have knowledge in this field?

They will have to drill a hole if the panel they are trying to access can be reached from behind, when they did my quarter, they drilled a tiny hole in the underside of the wheel well, and then plugged it up after with a rubber plug.

Sadly, the guy I used, vanished from the face of the earth. I will keep watching this post.

yeah, the only place they should need to drill a hole is in the rear quarter panel, because they will need to get behind it somehow. In that case they just drill through inside the wheel well, so you will never see it.

Most shops should let you watch as they take care of your car. They just go in behind the panel with a series of tools and push out the ding.
