Dents - what dents?

You may remember an earlier thread where I anguished over some dents in the van (not as bad as some dents shown on here but still annoying!) PC140057.JPG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte) All gone now thanks to the Spitfire Garage in Southampton! Can't tell there were any! Amazing, when other concerns said it couldn't be done without replacing the whole panel. Thanks to Aaron Calder for recommending them.
I'll add the usual disclaimer that I have no connection with the company - just happy with their work.

Thanks.

How many dents did they fix?

No further questions, Your Honour.

I have picked up a dent in storage, very annoying as its on the front metal panel, whoever did it also broke the plastic light guard, i have purchased a dent removal kit and i intend to try and pull the dent out with it, if i am successful i will post the photos.

I missed this when you posted it in June, Magpie, but I'm so pleased to hear that Spitfire Garage sorted out your dents and that you are happy with their work.

Lovely result!

I would be interested in how well the kits work.

We were shocked when we took our 540GT to ALV for its service and the young girl booking it in pointed out two slight dints on the door side of the van.

We had never noticed them and they had obviously happened since our last service. They are not massive so we are not too bothered currently but we will have to keep an eye out for future dints. they don't stand out as much as Magpies' do in the first photo
