    Default pull dints/dents from chassis??

    I have a vz sv6 and i recently had a random pedestrian throw a rock into my chassis on top of the drivers door and now there is a minor dint/dent.
    Would anyone happen to know where i can get this dint/dent pulled out in melbourne, western suburbs.

    All comments appreciated
    Thankyou in advance

    Just for future reference its a panel not the chassis. Would be a big rock to dent the chassis

    You can get dent pullers from SuperCheap Auto if you want to give it a crack yourself.

    Otherwise give you local panel beater a call.

    I dont know if you guys down there have this company.. But up in Sydney there are people who do paintless dent removal. Which are very good and professional. Maybe see if you can get onto them.

    They usually need access to the rear of the panel to work their magic. If it's the A Pillar dented, I doubt they can do much, if it's under the roof lining, good chance they can if the paint is not cracked

    Cheers boys. Will definetly have a look into your feedback.

    My mate had look at the dint and said he can fix it. Just put some putty or whatever on it then buff it back down the re-spray. Is this a good option? Remeber it being the metal part above the drivers door. Pretty much the frame

    If it is structural you might want to get someone professional to look at it, I know any hail damaged car with dents on structural panels like door frame/pillars need to be replaced in Vic.

    my mate drilled a small hole in the middle of the dent - then used a hook, similar to a battery brace bracket, and pulled it out himself.
    After that he bogged the little hole and sanded n painted it. - what dent....?
