This is my second time using Dent Time and specifically Jon. He was punctual, explained everything and did a great job. If the need arises, Dent Time will be my first call.

Waiting area
David S.

I was looking for a place that could fix a scratched bumper and found this place. There offer both mobile and in shop repairs but I highly recommend the mobile option. I popped in on a random Wednesday and was quickly greeted by the shop owner who provided a fair price and options available. The home option is nice because you just send in pictures and then can schedule a time for them to come out wherever you are. If you decide to wait there, it will usually be up to 4 hrs from my experience which I was advised on prior to leaving it there. The shop was clean, fair and service was great. They did an awesome job on the repair and it looks like new again. Thank guys.

This is the damage I had
David A.

Awesome service. The quote is done online via chat in 5 min or less. You just send a picture of the damage (even on a Sunday) and they reply with an estimated range of cost. The tech showed up to my office 45min before the appointment, waited for me and did the job in no time. Knowledgable and crafty. These guys know their stuff and do a great job. Would definitely use again.

Amazing and quick experience! Highly recommend! I was able to get an estimate and service within the same day.

AFTER

After dropping my Harley Fat Boy, I was left with a serious dent in the gas tank. I started calling around, and what I heard was disappointing: high prices, hesitation, and even one guy telling me "we'll see after, maybe 80% better." That's not acceptable to me. I don't ride a Harley for "maybe" or "almost." Then Mike from Dent Time called me back. No hesitation. No vague promises. He simply said: "It will look like new." That confidence alone made me ride over an hour and a half to see him and honestly, after seeing the result, I would've ridden five hours without thinking twice. The work he did is exceptional. The tank looks like it was never damaged. Not "better." Not "almost perfect." Perfect. This is one of those rare situations where the result is better than expected, and that almost never happens. If you're reading reviews, comparing shops, or wondering who to trust with your bike stop right now. Dent Time. Mike. That's it.

Shopping car dinged the Tesla 3. I didn't think it could be fixed, they made it look new again for less than other quotes. Highly recommend.

Ask the Community - Dent Time

Can you repair a cracked rim that caused an air leak?

Short answer. Unfortunately no. It needs replaced.

Does that make any difference, price wise, where the service is provided, at your office or at home?

And generally yes there is a $50 difference.

Where is your store location? yelp shows it is at sorrento valley but the website mentions Escondido.

Sorry for the confusion. As we state on the website, we are completely mobile based out of San Diego and our official shop is in Escondido. You can text me photos 858-943-9676 for an estimate. Thank you.

I was referred to Auto Art by my coworker and yes, I was skeptical because the auto business is…read moregenerally shady and unethical. I've got to say, they far exceeded my expectations. All the employees that I've interacted with were very professional, friendly, and prompt. I appreciated that I was kept in the loop with timely updates via phone. They moved my Enterprise booking to the Auto Parkway location and secured me a ride to Enterprise. Not only that but coordinating with the at-fault's insurance every step of the way. They were even able to secure a hard-to-find wheel that I had. My car looked like new with the spectacular repair and the detailing of the interior and exterior of my car. I had some packing tape residue on my front passenger window that I COULD NOT REMOVE even though I used goo gone and rubbing alcohol. That residue was nowhere to be seen. I have already told several people about Auto Art and they will be the ones I'll refer anyone needing repair to without hesitation. It is a breath of fresh air to find an honest, high-quality business that goes above and beyond.

I sent them pictures of what I needed done - very simple job. They sent me a quote 3 months ago on…read morea price. I called and messaged them twice last week and they agreed to honor the quote and said to bring it in. I bring it in and they say cost of material has gone up so the quote is now 40% more. Why not tell me this on the phone or in our Yelp chat instead of making me drive to your business and then you tell me? If you would tell me before coming to your shop I would've more than likely agreed. Sometimes it's not all about the money, but the principle.

RP did an incredible job. This mirror had sun damage all through the paint layers. The mirror not…read moreonly looked brand new but the paint match with sparkle was perfect. I will definitely recommend and return with future issues if they develop. The work was completed over a single weekend and they included a free detail that looked great.

Auto Enthusiast, High-End Grade Quality…read more If you are really into cars and the paint appearance is just as important as what's under the hood.... then RP is the place. First, I make specialty paint for airplanes as a living. I'm the guy who can spot used cars that "never had an accident" due to the repaint not being flawless. So when I started getting quotes for my repaint, I was pretty much accepting that my baby would be scarred for life and never look the same. You see, the reason it's easy for us car enthusiasts to see when even a good repaint fails the mark is because of something called "haze". Even if we hit the impossible on matching the gloss, surface texture, and specialty effects like mica or flake, but you miss the haze, then it's noticeable to us. As a note, the haze is a measure of how "true" or "rich" the color is once it's all cured. Is it cloudy or do the colors pop out at you kinda thing. I wanted to repaint a door and rear quarter. What's worse, it was the driver's side. So I'm seeing it every time I get in. My issue: I have a gorgeous Tesla with a high-end factory paint job that had a metallic flake effect. Pretty much an impossible ask to begin with; and then toss in that it was for someone proud of their car like me. But let me tell ya, it came out flawless! Hell, they even matched the flake and peel effects. No idea how. All with the lowest of three bids. Lastly, this Rudy fellow is the real deal. Great staff, but he himself called me the evening I dropped off the car. He understood I was going to be a tough customer to please, but there was something about him. He was confident and that's what made me choose RP. So if you need the impossible, don't even mess with the other quotes. This is my place from here on.

Dent EZ Out is a great name because in about ninety minutes after arriving, the dents were out! One dent on the drivers side of my hood, and on the right side another four to five difficult dents were removed like magic. I had my truck repainted: most panels, dents taken out, roof, new front grill [new teeth] and even got a new emblem for my 2000 vintage Tundra. The painter did a great job but did not securely adhere the flex-rubber seal across the windshield. Before replacing the entire windshield, where a new seal and everything was installed, I tried, myself to glue the old seal back on. Not a good idea to climb on your hood! ;..[ So, I created these unsightly dents and because they WERE right where the natural lines and nice shape of the hood is framed, I really messed things up. I honestly thought the entire hood would have to be removed because of the location [me: kicking myself] But, all good! I'm so glad I called Dent EZ Out. Israel's work was just incredible. See my photos. Also, my truck is black! The easiest [worst] color to see every single line and indentation. Everything is perfect now! So, thank you again Israel!!! Seriously, the work was done so perfectly I was smiling the rest of the afternoon, well, I am still smiling ; ] I highly recommend Israel @ Dent EZ Out services!

Isreal came out last year to fix an annoying dent (meaning I didn't give the car the dent) I had on…read morethe driver side door. I called around and received various prices and qoutes. His text was the most straight forward with price and reassurance. He comes to you with all the tools. The work was done right in my garage. Isreal was amazing from start to finish. He could tell my doubts and fears about the process and his calm/friendly demeanor was so helpful. I have to admit I didn't want to watch as if something went wrong, well, I didn't want to see the dent get worse. I was in the house when he started the process and it legit sounded like the car was being hammered, kicked, etc. Every noise made me cringe but I trusted the process. And within an hour or so, he called me out and voila. Dent was 100% removed. The car door was shiny and smooth. It was well worth the reasonable price and I would 100000% recommend Isreal for dent removals.
