Is this too much for a PDR pro?

Is this too much for a PDR pro?

Some asshat backed into me on a parking lot. Store didn’t get back to me about video. I don’t need this to look like new (though that would be great). Is this fixable via PDR? texted an image to a local PDR business and he got back to me saying I’d likely need to replace the quarter panel

Should I, a completely inexperienced person, attempt to pull this myself with some cheap tools from Amazon?

Is this it for my Corolla?

Had it less than a year still owe 12k on it. I was gone on a work trip and came back to this I heard the hail was so bad they sent out snow plows. I’m devastated I love this car.

PDR Process

Honda Elements have a unique rear-hinged door, and mine is dented. A local PDR shop recommended drilling an access hole in the door in the generally unseen part of the door where the latch handle is located. What do y’all say about this approach?

Can this be fixed via hot glue?

It’s a very small dent. The entire dent is the size of a small hand. However I can’t open the door now so need it fixed asap. Wondering if this is sth that can be fixed with hot glue by a person with no experience? If so which brand of glue should I get?

Too far gone?

Got side swiped taking a on ramp today, just curious if pdr will work or if I should just bring it in and have them sand it down and pull it out

Looking for advice

I have a baby on the way and im also paying for our wedding. I dont currently have the money to get a pro to do the job. How would a noob go about improving this? Or would you literally say, don't touch it as it's too difficult?

Painless dent repair

My neighbor backed into my rear left door earlier today. Any ideas what kind of repair expenditure I should expect?

PDR or body shop?

Someone backed into my wife's car and we settled up in cash without having to go through insurance. The quote we got from a body shop to repair/paint the area was just under $2300.00. Since her car is fairly rough cosmetically, i wanted to see if it would be cheaper to find a PDR place and have them push the dent out (dont really care about some scuffs in the paint) instead of spending the whole pay out on the body shop. Thank you.

Repair $?

A local dent repair tech told me it would be 716 total to fix. I backed into a plastic dumpster. No cracks or paint damage, just a small dent. The $ seemed high so asking here. 2022 X5

Dent Wizard PDR Tech Employment

Can anyone shed some light on what it's like working as a PDR tech for Dent Wiz these days?

Quick search shows they don't have the best reputation, but most info/news on the internet are very dated.

Thanks in advance

Is this fixable?

Yesterday I dropped my stanley bottle and it made massive damage on my car. It was empty and not even from a high distance! Unreal...

I wanted to see if it's possible to get it fixed? I'm not sure due to the location of the hit.

Thanks in advance.

PDR for Traverse liftgate?

Kiddo bumped into the back corner of our other car parked on the street as he was backing out of our driveway. 🤦‍♀️ We haven’t gotten a quote yet. Checking here for advice first.
