Dent Wizard update

So went today and after an hour of them working on my fender, I was told he cannot get out my dent! Man this sucks now. At least he didn't charge me. Said because of where it is, around the fender, that he cannot get to it. So now its either deal with it or body shop. Oh well.

i didnt see the dent either at first

I dont know for sure, but you might be able to get most of it out by sticking your hand up behind it and push most of it out. Or possibly use like a rubber mallet to tap most of it back into form from behind.

Yup, everything they did at Dent Wizard. Problem with that area is that it is two layers of steel. They had to cut a access hole then use their tools to try to fix the dent. The guy doing the fix was very honest (not charging) and knowledgeable. Because it is on the seem where the body changes shape makes it harder to tap out. Just a bad place for a dent. Think I will go with painted ATS flairs, will look good with the matching color and they don't extend out that much to make it look weird with stock wheels. Plus will cover the dents right up which will also be cheaper than taking it to a body shop for some bondo and paint. I just wish I wouldn't care about it, but than I wouldn't be a f150 owner or f150online user!

Brody,
Yes, those are the ATS ones at Moss. If you get them, clean the body area VERY well where the double edge tape will adhere too with a good auto solvent cleaner. Easy install otherwise.
