PDR vs. Body Shop: The Smart Choice is Clear
Traditional body shop repairs for dents typically cost $800-$2,500+ and take 3-7 days, requiring paint matching, fillers, and complete panel refinishing. PDR costs 60-80% less at $175-$500 for most dents and takes just 1-3 hours while preserving your vehicle's original factory paint.
Why pay more to wait longer for a repair that diminishes your car's value? PDR maintains your original paint finish, prevents color mismatches, and eliminates the risk of future paint issues. Your insurance company knows this too - that's why they prefer PDR and often waive deductibles.
The math is simple: faster, cheaper, better results with no paint work needed. When you can restore your vehicle to factory condition in hours instead of days at a fraction of the cost, choosing anything else just doesn't make sense.
