Anybody in Hamilton able to recommend a good, reliable and trustworthy panelbeater in Hamilton (or Waikato, as will travel but not over 30mins) who can panel beat a dent in our 2001 Honda Odyssey passengerside front gaurd! We dont know how it got the dent but we want it removed. Looking for recommendations on whos the best locally so we dont have to go around the whole town getting quotes etc. And also a panelbeater that possibly does car buffing as there are some scuffs along that side of the car which we want removed also. Cheers

Could post a photo if that helps in recommending a panelbeater. Prefer not to have to replacde the whole gaurd as its a bit more of a modern Odyssey so probably wont be cheap and I dont want to fork out for colour matching ontop.

The panel will still need to be colour matched when the repaired dent has been fixed.
What is your insurance excess!

price a replacement gaurd to start with so you atleast have a comparison.

#3, only if they use bog, which I will not accept unless absolutely neccessary. If no bog, then a simple buff should bring it up to a good standard. Thanks #5, will go see them sometime next week.

Oh!
How do you suppose they buff out the hammer and dolly marks!
And then a panel file, which will tear the paint right off the sheet-metal.

I've used Tony's Panel Shop in the past (in Te Rapa), they were always really great.But I haven't used them in the past few years (I must be getting better at driving lol).

Yeah Tony Panel shop. Why no bog! Its a 01 honda! It no doubt has bog in every other panel. Just pop out, bog over and paint it.
