Hi,
Anybody who owns an integra knows that the body metal is very thin and that it dents easilly. I have two small dents and i would like to know if anybody has experience in using those dent pullers, they only cost about 30$, do they work>, do u risk cracking the metal?

Thanx.

I don't think you would risk cracking the metal. Just don't pull the dents when it's cold out. Mine integra has a nice dent I put in it with a shovel when I was trying to dig under the engine after I got stuck on a snowbank. That happened like three years ago. I don't bother with puuling the dents. I consider them war wounds, it give the car character.

No WAY!! Ding King or Dent King does not work. I have many small little dings on my Teg from other cars in parking lots who don't watch out and I used to get so pissed off. Bought the ding king and tried it so many times did not pull small dings at all. The glue would pop off before you can apply a pretty good force on the ding. Total waste of money. Get used to the dings more will come no matter what. I park far away from other cars and they just start parking next to my car just because I don't think they want there cars to be lonely. Who knows.....

The ding king type thing only works on larger dents. Pro's use the same type of tool, just not low quality.

Check with a local Paintless Dent Removal company in your area, we used dent wizard(s?) @ honda. Our normal guy did awesome work, usually in a short time, 20 mins for small dents. They charge by the size, any where from $30-$125 per dent. You get a discount if you have a lot or know some one. You might even want to pull up to one of PDR guys at the dealer, they might do it on the side for you

I remember when my car got jacked, it came back with more dents then it'd had. But I had a system which wasnt covered, so I needed to save money where I could and I told them to just leave the dents alone, I ended up ok except the bastards ordered me that stupid cargo cover thing that goes onto the back seats (even though I needed money and askd them not too :screwy: ), a little piece of cardboard with some carpet, apparently thats a $279 piece of cardboard :thefinger (thats for you Acura of Fresno, who wouldnt take it back and Quality Paint & Body for ordering it).
Eventually Im going to fix it and paint it, but I only have about 4 or 5. Some stupid fuck at my work was trying to set my alarm off, I didnt realize at the time he left a dent, now hes fired and I dont know how to get him. Criminals.. and stupid fucks... all need to just be shot in the head... :banghead: :2cents:

Dents are battle wound’s from a war wage on our streets every day and should be worn with pride but with some discretion. ( Thats how you think when your cheap)
