Hi guys,

What should I expect to pay to repair the rear wing panel shown in the photos?

Would a PDR guy be able to pull the dents out and then a machine polish remove the scratches?

Or would it be a more involved dent pull and respray type of repair?

Thanks for your help

If there's no cracks, breaks in the paint then PDR is very possible imo.
That's not a £50 job, I'd say £150-£300 for PDR on that. It's got abit of everything there.
I'd avoid someone filling and respraying if possible, wants good PDR first even if it's just pushed for paint...

Can't see that a PDR will get that out as the rear arch is creased where there is a 2nd skin behind and they would be unable to get behind it, a repair and paint would be the best option, providing you go to a capable bodyshop there wouldn't be a lot of filler in it. The door would require blending to ensure the colour match is spot on but I'd be expecting to pay aprox £400 upwards for a good job doing

Most PDR techs now days use glue, you can always drill a hole to gain access if needs be... I'd rather no filler unless it's the only option

Thanks for the advice guys. I have messaged a few PDR guys that are local but they have all said that its a body shop job,

Would anyone be able to recommend a bodyshop / PDR guy that could could repair this in the North Kent / South London area?
