DIY PDR tips?
My friends 900 SE was involved in a hit and run. Apparently twice. In the same day. Once on the front driver fender and once down half of the passenger side. Front fender might get replaced with a matching Scarab Green one. The passenger side now has a very deep dent on the wheel well that won't be getting fixed and three more down the side. One large one behind the door that I think we can PDR ourselves and the other two might be worth a shot. (Though smaller and more difficult)
Does anyone have any tips on what can be done? The car is in really good shape otherwise, with zero rust. I'll get pics of the damage tomorrow.I don't drive fast...I fly slow

I looked into DIY PDR myself once when a deer landed on my hood. Besides equipment, experience in PDR seems even more important for a quality job. It all depends on how perfect you want the final result to be. I thought it would be safer to spend the extra money and let an expert do it. And after seeing the result, that was the right decision.
