Need all my IE, OC, LA amigos help please
Apperently my little sister thinks she's strong enough to hold a street bike upright in order to get a soda from the garage. The **** fell and dented/ scratched my car pretty good. I'm so smurfing pissed but I've made this priority number one..
Kinds hard to see from the pics but the dent is about 5 inches long. Pretty deep scratch where it first hit. I got an estimate at a body shop for 900. but that sounded way to high.. What do you all think as far as estimates?
Any advice on what route to go? And does anybody here know a good body and paint shop? I live in Fontana.. I really don't want any kind of memory of this and I want the Goat to look just as it did before the bike landing on it.
All responses welcome and appreaciated.
Thanks

Best thing I can come up with is find someone local or that you're willing to travel to that does Paintless Dent Repair... I know there's a guy in Vegas on the GTO forum that does it for a decent price. After the dent is fixed, start applying touch-up paint in VERY thin coats with an extremely fine artist's brush. You'll probably need 7-8 coats but DON'T rush it. Just set each one, then go back after it's dried until you're happy with it. Best of luck to ya, bud.

I might just chance it and go with them since times are rough for now and i got GOATRUN coming up.. I don't wanna roll to vegas with a disgusting gash on my car..lol
He's giving a four year warrenty though which aint too bad
