Default Good paintless dent repair shop/guy in S.OC

Hi guys/gals -

I've already posted this on NSXprime but thought you might be able to help as well.

Monday morning at about 6AM I caught a rock about the size of a raquetball on the front of my NSX. Dented the front fender and left three scratches down to the bar aluminum.

I really, really, really don't want to repaint the fender and accept the fact that the car is now 7-years old and it wasn't going to be perfect forever. However, I would like to find a good shop or guy who can pop the dent for me so I can do some touch up paint work.

I found a highly recommended guy on Prime but he's all the way up in Camarillo. That's a long ass drive from Dana Point.

Does anyone here have a recommendation?

Thanks in advance.

Christian

I hate these guys. They do a good job on dents, but hopefully they don't jack up your car because then they disappear. I had them do touch-ups on a few chips and they charged me $50 for 2 panels. Their work was shoddy and when I got home I noticed residue from their buffing compund. I called them multiple times and the owner "Jeff" would never pick up the phone. His buddy offered me a discount on future work, but why would I bring my car back to a place that does crap work with poor customer service.

That's scary.

I've pm'd Matt but I know he doesn't check this board as frequently as he once did.

If anyone has the contact info. for his referral, please pass it along.

And thanks to everyone for the responses so far.

Much appreciated.
