Look up "touch up usa" It's on Stockton Ave. in San Jose. I know they do touch ups, but I am not sure about dent removal. Worth a shot.

i got depressed yesterday because of my mom. she saw that small ding on the body line in front of the gas tank from the kitchen window. it looks so small up close but i guess being it pushed in the line it reflected light different and looks huge from far away.

There is a guy named Andy Honda that works for Dent Pros, but in the Dublin area. Probably one of the best dent removers I have ever seen. Some people aren't the greatest at taking out dents as sometimes you are able to still see waves.

that's what seperates the eilte from others

the person that removed dents from my old hood... even in places i thought were impossible to fix... got it done perfectly.. you can't tell at all they were ever there before...

(this refering to the person i know that works with stevens creek scion)
