NEED HELP MY '07 GT/CS GOT HIT

Some dumb minivan driving woman Backed into the driversdie front 1/4 panel on Monday , There is a small dent (very small) right above the GT/CS stripe but it then pushed out above at the very top of th the fender well. A body shop thinks Dent Wizard could fix both issues which then there would be no painting required, any thoughts? Another body shop wanted top replace the 1/4 panel paint the panel & blend the hood & door, so i am confused on which route to take. HELP!!

I hear the magic dent repairs are pretty good and then you don't have to worry about paint blending/matching.

If the panel isn't creased or the paint isn't crack, chipped, or too messed up, the Dent Wizard should be fine.

If the Wizard can't do it, you can always go the conventional route.
Try the Wizard first. Do they guarantee their work?

To echo what others have said and...

If you get a good dent guy, they'll tell you if they can do it right or not. When I had my '06 GT, the dent guy told me he wouldn't be able to do a proper job since it was creased. I don't believe it was a lack of skill on his part, but pure honesty.

Good luck either way you choose.

I knew a few good PDR guys. If its not on a body line i.e. angle or crease, then PDR should work, but if it's in an oddball space or complex angle, even the best PDR professional knows not to play with it and make it worse.
