I have aquired two dents in frot drivers wing just to side of lights after a sligh off road accident. any good tips on how to remove the dents?

or do you know anyone who can do this cheap ? in the swindon area.

if you are not to bothered about the wings then just push 'em out

Hoboman in Faringdon might be able to help

Depends how bad they are, if your going to try and do it without removing the wing then a dent puller, or hammer it out from behind if you can get at it.

If your going to need to respray, drill a little hole and put a self tapping screw in, pull the dent out with the screw then take it out and fill the hole, sand it and respray. Due to where it is, and where the seams are, you will probally get away with a can of paint and just masking off the area after the seam, the seam helps to cover the difference in the paint colours.

Drivers side? Passangers side was my prefrance

. Its easy to forget about that wing all the way over there. Lucky for me i got bull bars just incase (£14 with 2 lights off ebay). Just the job, and i bent them back again same day!

To be honest though Surrey doesent have all that much to throw at you, and i dont have a winch or snorkel so im genrally carefull....but somtime not carefull and just lucky!
