Default Pillar Dents

Hello Everyone,

While I was at college and it turned into winter, some idiot/fool took an ice scraper to my passenger side a-c pillar and put 30-40 dents in it. I was wondering, what methods are there to get them out? Has anyone had this happen to them?

Here are a few pictures:





All help is appreciated, they aren't that big of a deal, but I would like to get them fixed sometime....

I don't know who did it, I am known as a ricer, by all the kids with pos cars. Even though I will be the first person to say my car isn't fast, and I don't brag at all, oh well.

I did take it to one PDR place, and they want $250 to paint them, the dealer guy wants $500 to do the dent popper like the Billy Mays thing.

Sorry to hear about those dents man. Lot of losers out there, needless to say.

Right now your only option is the PDR done asap coz it's gonna suck even more the longer you keep those dents there. $250 is really too much, but maybe you can find somebody cheaper. Goodluck dude.

They want $250 to paint it in, what about Dry Ice?

You mean the Dry ice method? I know it works for bumpers and doors/large panels...but I dunno for narrow/thick metal areas such as the pillars..try it on one and see if it works. But I've heard this method might damage the paint too.
