Got my first PDR done today - very happy!
Got my first PDR done today - very happy!
I think pictures speak for thousand words. So couple months ago, I don't recall where, but got a coin size dent on the fender. Due to the aluminum rigidness of the G, it's hard to pull out by all means ( I even watched tons of youtube vids).
I've chosen a good review local PDR, nice dude got this done within 1 hour. Yes, tons of hammer but I'm happy with result. It's smooth - and you dont see the dent anymore. 100%. So i really like to share with you guys if you have dent, just get the PDR folks take care for ya.
+1. had PDR done on my G as well as the wife's Highlander. very impressed in both cases. almost 100% correction all done in a quick, convenient, cost effective manner with minimally invasive surgery.
For even a small dent, unless it's invisible, pay a $100 get that done.
Can you elaborate on how much of the G37 sedan is aluminum? I have a minor ding in my door that I was going to glue pull myself - is it just the front clip?
Thanks!

I've had occasion to use PDR off and on over the years, starting with a rear quarter panel dent on a 1989 Maxima years ago, and what these guys can do is absolutely amazing - I've never, ever, been disappointed in their work.
I'd say considerable amount - the PDR guy actually spent lots of time hammer here and there. Also, dont , or never do it by your own. I did that path, it really won't work. there are couple reasons:1. your tools aren't capable to do the job, the aluminum if you pull hard, it will creates the un even surface, which is even worse for PDR to work on. 2. The low/high point is the key to get a perfect fix, the high point it's not like the higher the better, it's all about the dripping pivot . this is from the PDR's words.
so - just pay the bill and let the PDR do it. I know it's worth maybe a nice steak house dinner bill but i say for my lovely G37 it's worthy...

I've glue pulled my Accord and it looked great, although it took me a while. Granted these were minor dings and I didn't see a before pic of your damage. I wouldn't attempt anything deep with a sharp crease or in aluminum. I found the hood is aluminum but mine is in the passenger front door - if not aluminum I'll give it a try.
