Looks to me like a paintless removal system like "Dentmaster" would be able to get those out easily enough, they might even be able to get to them through the rear rather than removing the interior rear panels or maybe via the rear speaker hole if you have aftermarket ones fitted. They removed a much deeper dent than those on my Wifes Picasso on the bonnet front when some hiab reversed into it in the car park and the finish looked excellent £50 for the single dent and it helped sell the car.

What you can see is the missing paint in the larger dent, but I quite agree, £200 seems a lot, 4 such little dents. Once the quotes come though, I'm trying 2 get halfords 2 cover the cost as it was there faulty product. If not r just have 2 put off the leather re dye project.

If you do end up having to pay, I'd have a word with dentmaster as David says. Not the franchised guys in the vans but somewhere with their own workshop. I had a few dents taken out of the door of a previous car and they touched up a small scratch in the largest dent for £100. There's a local dent master company that did a demonstartion at our club night and they where very impressive and much better that hoping the paint is a good match.

Unfortunately those dents are located in an area that has a double skin so a Dent guy would not be able to get behind them to tease them out. The dents themselves are tiny but the size of the panel they are on is huge and it would all have to be painted if you did not want to see any join. £200 for a panel that size is a very good price if you are looking for a quality finish

The paint match shouldn't be a problem as it's quite new, and I'm going back 2 same spary shop.

Thanks guys
