I put a massive scrape, and dent in my Audi a few weeks or back. (reversed into a pillar ) those guys fixed it perfectly, and while it was in I got them to respray the front bumper, bonnet, roof and take a mark out of the wheel arch that had been annoying me!

Im very happy with the quality and service (mini valet and full all over polish and wax thrown in) if I wasnt so lazy I would go and take pic, but thats not happening this eve.

Edit. They do bodywork for dealers, so when new cars have.... little accidents, quite a few take it to him to get patched up, mostly high end stuff too.

would painless dent removal be an option?

Very few Dealers do their own bodywork, they all just send it out to bodyshops anyway, and then charged you a profit on what the bodyshop charges them. Can you show us a photo and we can advise a little more?

A bit outside Dublin but Lusk Car Care are superb. They repaired our Audi A4 cabriolet (coincidentally having to work on previously botched paint "fix" by a well known Audi dealer in Dublin) as well as doing a full respray on my Jag.

Declan's the man to ask for. They are middle-of-the-road in terms of price, but absolute top in quality in my opinion

I got a variety of dents, scratches, plastic trim pieces, etc repaired at Ashmore Ryder in Ringsend/Grand Canal and was very pleased with the result. Fairly realistic about which bits should be done, which left etc.

IIRC, Maxwell Motors used to use them and I recall Anan1 on here complaining of a poor repair he got done through the said dealership.

It was a few years ago, but I was given the distinct impression that Maxwell had their own body shop. I even had a card from their bodyshop manager, who assured me at the outset that he'd ensure that the job was done properly. Either way, the first effort was truly shameful and it took them four goes to get it right.

+1 for Gerry Maguire. He used to do all the bodywork jobs for Ballsbridge Motors.I'm not sure if he still does?

Dennings Ive heard nothing but good things about.

They are accredited by everyone I can think of in the car industry so cant be a bad thing, Although they arent meant to be the cheapest going.

I think you should buy the guy who reccommended them to you a pint. I mean you seem to be really happy :pac:

Big +1 for me here too, I've also had work done there and it was top notch

Thanks for all the replys. Much appreciated. Looks like i will go to Gerry Maguire as he suits location wise too. I will check my insurance properly tomorrow and call in their next week.

+1 for me too! Reversed Audi into pipe in car park! Dropped in in the morning and picked up that evening. Bumper looked look it never happened! Highly recommend
