Pop into any large franchise car dealer and get the name of their dent man, they all use them, and if he is recommended by a dealer he will be fairly competent.
depends on the type of dent, but you can do it yourself.
hair dryer and pipe freezer spray.
if it's a proper circular dent well away from any crease lines, and the the skin has not been stretched.
firstly warm the centre of the dent with the hair dryer till it really warm 40is degrees same as hot bath. then spray the centre of the dent with the pipe freezer.
it'll shrink and the dent will pop out.....
if your lucky....

i like that, but, unfortunately it is on a crease line, well it's not a crease as such but it is a place where the panel has a curve in it
if it was on a flat bit i could let it go as it is under 30cm. diameter and according to the dehire terms would be acceptable on a flat panel.
if it's on a crease the chances of dentman fixing it are low...
Not necessarily correct, it will depend on how sharp the dent on the swage line is, and where it is (access) and more importantly how good the dent man is. I work alongside these guys all the time and the real good ones walk on water.

got to give those guys their due, they are skilled.
anyhow, got a guy coming over in the morning (from dentsinc) to do it. i emailed him a pic. and from that reckoned he can sort it. not cheap but hey if it sorts it, job's a gud un if i left it to the lease company they'd prob. want 3 times what me man'll do it for.
