Roof Dent Repair

Hey guys,
My roof was unfortunately hit with a coconut this morning , leaving a roughly 5 inch dent on the driver side roof. The paint should be ok since i have a black vinyl wrap on the roof, but where should I take the car to have it fixed? Can they do pointless dent removal / do i need a new roof? How much does it cost??






Thanks guys

Definitely run it by a paintless dent repair shop and see what they say, they can do some magic and looks like that might be something they could handle.

I agree with the paintless dent removal. I had a few small dents removed and I can't tell the difference. I'm not sure how the wrap will affect it though or if it has to be removed first. Good luck

If the vinyl wasn't there you could try the heat and dry ice pop

Pdr can fix that. Here is the issue you will run into. If it wasn't vinyl wrapped, they could glue pull it and save you money on labor. Because it is wrapped, the only correct way to fix it, is get a tool behind it, and that means they have to drop your headliner. Expect this repair to be around 350. 150 for dent plus 200 to r&I the headliner.
