Auto Body Shops Maryland

I recently came out to my work parking lot to find a rather large dent in the side of my car. looks like somebody hit it with a plastic bumper or straight up plopped there butt down onto it..
Unfortunately no note left or anything...
Id try suction cup but ive had bad luck with that making things worse on other cars.
was wondering if yall could recommend a shop near Howard County Maryland to do dents like this flawlessly

Looks like a relatively simple job for a paintless dent repair. Maybe a PDR specialist is a better option over a body shop, but Caliber Collision on E. Gude Dr. repaired my car when it was hit in a parking lot... just 20 hours into owning it. (thankfully the lady left her number and had already called Geico to file a claim before I even saw the damage.)



edit: oops, just saw the Howard County... still, try to find a good PDR place

have you tried taking the inner trim from the trunk and pushing it out from the inside?

upper right hand corner of this picture there is a frame above the wheel well but you should be able to get your hand behind it and push the dent out
