all of you know that im meticulous with my celi and i want it to look perfect 24/7.

just wanted to know if there is an inexpensive way that i can remove some small dings on the side of my car. they're very small and a normal person wouldnt have a problem with them, but i do. how do i go about removing these dings. do i hammer them out from the inside or should i leave it to a body shop guy? i really dont want to spend money on my body for now b/c my funds are going to the motor and tranny.

any input would be much appreciated. doggy i need your help bro, biggrin.gif

I personally prefer to use a hammer/dolly kit when possible and a shrinking hammer to remove any high spots. These days fillers are very good and hold up well as long as the metal is well prepared. I wouldn't use filler on any part that has
bass rattles from your stereo system. I have had 3 good size dings I filled with a fiberglass based shortstrand filler. I culdn't get behind them. They have held up great.
