Hi All !!!!!!





      You all are wondering Kung Fu?  Well, last Sat I was working on my miata

on the  exhaust tip in the garage and as i went to get some tools from my work

bench high atop a shelf, as i was coming down, i tripped and fell between the

front of my work bench and the miata.. My elbow made contact on the hood,

center and close to the leading edge. My elbow made a good dollar size

indentation... OHHHHH NOOOOOO !!!!!!...  After a few words of wizdom, i dusted

myself off. What shall i do??????  When monday came about, I called Dent

Wizard here in town.. They were available and I rushed my injured miata

(mostly my feelings) down to them.. They accessed the damaged and said they

can fix her.. Great !!! I also had them look at three other small dings. After

waiting an hour and a half later, all known dings were gone.. Dent Wizard got

the dollar size ding in the hood out like it nevered happened, plus the other

small dings that i mentioned were gone.. Like magic.. gone, poof.  The cost

you ask? The one that I put in the hood cost 175.00 and with the others the

total cost was 330.00 . Now the surface of my miata is free of blemishes..

After thinking about the cost, it is nothing compared to if one let a body

shop do the work.. The dings in my car did not have any paint damage so when

they removed the dings, painting was not an issue. So if you have a or a few

dings in your miata or your other vehicle, consider Dent Wizard or the likes

to removing them... it is an alternative to a body shop... I believe a body

shop would cost much more and additional body work would have uneccessary been

done. Amazing...( I feel much better now )
