I used Dent Doctor up in Thornhill a few years ago for a dent on the front quarter panel. Know others that have used them as well and no complaints.

^^ This, they pulled two dings out of mine last summer and it's perfect. One was in the middle of the door, the other was on the rear 1/4 on the panel ridge.

How much did that end up costing you? I'd like to get a door ding repaired.

I think it was about $250 for the two dings.

If you want a quote on the repair, best to just drop by and let them have a look at it. Prices will vary based on the difficulty of getting at the dent and it'll be more for sure if the dent has a crease. I think for the 'standard' dent (if there's such a thing!) it's about $100-125.

I had a great experience with whoever Scarborough Scion gets to come in... Call the body shop and talk to Mike MacDonald. Tell him I sent you.

Thanks for the input everyone, much appreciated. Dent Doctor seems to be a pretty trusted option by many people so I think I'll check them out

I had mine done about a month ago with Ray from http://www.cardentmedic.ca/ and it went well. Did a great job and you could barely tell there was anything.

Sadly just got another dent today though right next to the repair

Unfortunately for getting door dings the metal is thin...Fortunately for fixing dents the metal is thin
