Default Ding and a scratch

Hi, Can anyone recommend a good ding removal service? Also, is it possible to touch up a small scratch (about the size of a quarter) and get good results? I have pictures of the damage but don't know how to post them. Thanks, Jeff

location? how well the touch up looks really depends on the color car and your level of patience. Mettallics are hard to make look right.
There is a guy that does paintless dent removal at Kuhn Honda on Wednesday mornings but he is done and gone by 9AM, name is Paul and he can be found on the used car lot early mornings on Wednesdays. if you deal with him he will do it alot cheaper than taking it to service and having the service dept do it. He has repaired a few on mine and a couple of other members S2000s and I can not eve find the ones that where on my car.

I have used Paul and he does great work and is pretty quick. He can also give you the number for another fellow he recommends for touch ups, rock chips, etc. I would have no problem following any recommendation he gave.

he does a few local dealers in the Tampa area. if you go to a couple of local dealers you should be able to find one willing to give you a phone number or day that their dent guy will be in. talk to someone in used cars and ask who they use
