Default Great news regarding dent...

<center><img src="http://home.san.rr.com/winefinds/nodent.jpg"></center><p>Some of you may have read that yesterday, I posted that I had just discovered not one but 2 dings on the right side of the TT. The big one was along a crease over the right wheel, and is very difficult to repair without going to a body shop, repainting, etc.

I have been going to Just Dings in San Diego for years. They have repaired 3 easy dings and 2 very difficult ones for me, and done a flawless job each time. When I brought the TT in today, the owner said that he thought that the odds were less that 50% of being able to do the repair.

After an hour and a half or so, I called him to check on their progress. The owner said that the small dent came out just fine, but they were unable to repair the large front dent, as the paint had cracked, and they were unable to much with the dent, due to its position and severity.

****T, I thought. However, when I saw the car, I was happy to see that the big nasty dent is now undetectable! The bastard was screwing with me! So both dents came out perfectly and the total cost was only $139. Take a look at the pic and see for yourself!

I know there are a ton of folks doing dent/ding removal out there, but these guys are the best. My Mercedes had a very bad dent, and the ding guy at Hoehn Mercedes made it worse, another guy was unable to fix it, Just Dings did it so nice that it was invisible.

Seriously, if I lived in L.A., San Berdo, Santa Barbara, I would drive to San Diego just to have these guys do my repair. That's how good they are!

Also, their prices are already pretty reasonable, but within the next few days, I expect to announce a further discount on repairs performed by Just Dings for SoCal Audi TT Club members! If you need to reach them, their number is 858-578-8600.<p><img src="http://home.san.rr.com/winefinds/1.jpg" border="0">
