Sorry can't post any pics as only got an iPhone , was pleased with the customer service in Nissan really nice staff Just out of curiosity whats the process and cost for "dink" removal.... I have a couple that I'd like fixing. In addition I have one very annoying stone chip on my wheel arch. What would be the best process? Quote

Hi Wasso , my car had 3 on the doors didn't take long for them to do but it's a bit more tricky if your dinks are elsewhere on your cars bodywork it cost me £60 which I think was a good price as it looks fab now As for the stonechip it mite need the arch sprayin if it's too big to use touch up paint !

Wasso Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Hmmmm I have a dink on each door, the arch stonechip is quite a big one, not a boulder but has to be around 2-3mm in size. I can see the primer which isn't good. I had heard of a company called Chipsaway - they are mobile - anybody had any experience of them? Quote
martinmac Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 I think Chipsaway is franchised which usually means its down to the individual. I had several taken out by a guy in Leicester who was very good. There is always the dent removal service at Zedfest. Quote

I used chips away on my Supra and it was good My mum used them on her fiesta and it was a gash job tbh Bit of a lottery dottery as Mart says Quote
nixy Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 I used these http://www.specialistdents.co.uk/ cost me about £30 and they did a wheel arch and a door. BUT it was cheap because they were doing several cars at once down at my Nissan dealer. I think generally its probably about £30 a panel but just email and ask. Quote
Wasso Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Wicked very helpful I'll make some calls when I return from Europe as the car is bound to get some sort of battering along the way. As long as I can play it safe round the Nurburgring without getting more than a dink Quote
nixy Posted August 12, 2010 Posted August 12, 2010 the ring will be fine - just don't stop in a French Supermarket car park on your way home- that's the biggest danger! Quote
