Re: [Amc-list] Door skin



Hmmm, Find another shop?
A new skin for door dings and it has no filler or rust?
sorry, I'd not replace a skin for dings.
Does the 70 have the bar in it?
I can't remember what year it was added, but if there is no bar in that door then both sides are within reach after pulling the panel...even with the bar in place a stud gun and some time will get 99.9% of all dings out.
If they are a really good shop and you want the car painted there, then I'd find a paintless dent removal place and have them work the dings out before taking it to the shop.
  You need to explain the plans to the guys at the paintless dent removal place as they typically will not work on old cars as they older a paint is the more likely it is to crack. You'll have to tell them it is going in for a repaint and you won't hold them liable for cracked paint. You just want the dings out.
