    That dent appears to be too sharp to PDR it.

    Not sure if its too sharp or not but most pdr places do free quotes and pdr is very affordable.

    Won't hurt anything to call a pdr guy up and have them look at it. My tacoma was 1 month old and got hit by a shopping cart. The damn thing must have been full because in a 8" circle there was 6 dents and a small crease, no broken paint.

    The pdr guy was unsure how good it would look after he fixed it but it's perfect, I can't even see where it was at all. And the dents were in the drivers door, low on the curvature on the bottom. Only cost me $200

    People suck...

    My Fiancé hade PDR done to her old Lexus. It looked better, but you could still see that something had been there if you looked for it.

    It was good enough to keep the lease return Nazis off her back though!

    Depends on the dent, and the repair guy I guess...

    I had some dents and one was right on a body line, the dent guy did a great job and I wouldn't even have known it was there.

    I have a guy that I recommend. He pulled a dent for me in my WRX. Was perfect when he got done and only charged me $80.

    Funny you ask, I just had PDR done on my " brand new " RAV4 last weekend. It looks great, can't see where the dent was and the price was great

    Yeah try a college dorm parking lot where the spaces are made for tiny cars when you drive a fullsize truck. I went into my first year with a truck with no dents and came out with about 6-7 dents/door dings/fist marks???. My pdr guy took care of them all for somewhere around $220 and the truck looked new again. I was skeptical of pdr at first.
