RM300 you can respray a panel but the advantage of paintless dent repair is that you don't have to worry about colour matching if you respray. However if some of the paint has dropped out PDR will still leave a mark.
Nicks in the door panel due to careless opening of doors is common. It's not going to be the last nick you get on the doors. Unless my car is a Ferarri or Porsche I would just leave it. |

However if some of the paint has dropped out PDR will still leave a mark. Don’t like respraying as color matching can be difficult. Also, I prefer the original paint. Nicks in the door panel due to careless opening of doors is common. It's not going to be the last nick you get on the doors. Unless my car is a Ferarri or Porsche I would just leave it. Also, it really depends on the dent. If it’s minor and small, then it’s negligible. If it’s huge and an eyesore (especially when the dent is within driver’s view eg driver’s door etc) then, I think it’s a good investment to do it.

actually paintless dent repairs will always leave some sort of mark, whether obvious or not is the question.

really depends on the experience of the guy and the location of the dent.
i remember doing PDR in canada on an audi tt for like $50 first dent and $30 subsequent dents. never had a mark or sign that there was ever a dent, other than 1 spot where the line of the car is. |

RM200 to press out a dent is too much! These people are killing their own business.

Usually, if the dent is not 100% fixed, they won’t charge the full amount. To be fair, some places are hard to fix. |
