Engage a reputable Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) company prior to sending the vehicle to a body shop, where it may be subjected to unnecessary repairs involving filler and bondo. Such procedures often overlook underlying damage, leading to additional repairs. It's essential to prioritize quality over cost. This replacement hood, damaged in a second hailstorm, exemplifies the consequences of subpar repair work. Prioritizing PDR and metal work initially ensures optimal results, as attempting PDR after traditional repairs can be impractical, particularly when glue pull procedures are involved.
