Some ass dinged my car - repair needed
So.... got the car nicely cleaned and polished yesterday after C&C and some nice maintenance including new plugs and coils and more....
Parked it up last night outside La Bucca restaurant in Dunboyne only to come out this morning and notice this.... I doubt it happened at C&C so it must have happened there. No CCTV.
Absolutely furious. Any recommendations of a good - solid repairer and a price estimate? Might get my bumper done at the same time - couple of stone chips (being pedantic now!)

Ouch, I absolutely hate when people ding your car and don't own up. I had something similar happen recently and as expected there was no CCTV where I parked.

I was at C&C yesterday as well, noticed the M3 and the little ding at the top of the wheel arch. Didn't know it was yours. You were parked facing the same direction you came in the entrance?
Rich :-(

Hyper annoying all right. Know the feeling. Right on the curve.
Too bad for paintless dent removal?

I would try to get the dent taken out by a PDR guy even if it does need painting. At least it would minimise the amount of filler that would be needed.

Yeah its a bit scuffed but it might polish out if I can get the PDR guys to do it. Anybody recommend anybody?

It wouldn't really take much filler as the panel beater will hammer and dolly out the dent. Ricks Car Care seem to be really good. if the paint is scraped or crack pdr won't really work?

Haven't used these guys only heard about them so can't vouch.
Because it seems to be on the edge of a panel, there could be trouble ahead.
