Had my 2018 Camry XLE Hybrid one week before I was rear ended. Took it to Eddie because he can do magic with metal... My bumper needed to be replaced and painted in addition he had to do his PDR work on rear and side.... And it turned out looking new again..... Well done Eddie!!!! read more

Eddie has never steered me wrong even when he has steered me away from his shop. Will honestly tell you when your work belongs somewhere else. Where have all the good local businesses gone? One ended up on Kearny Mesa Road. read more

Can't say enough good things about Eddie! I brought my 2018 4Runner to Eddie late in the day with some dents in the hood, and he had me out that same day good as new! He's also just a great guy and I really enjoyed talking to him. His experience is evident and don't hesitate to trust your car with him... he'll put in the extra effort to make sure it's done right! Thanks again Eddie! read more

I'm constantly in awe of what a good tech can do to make a car look like new again. Eddie did a fantastic job removing some pretty serious door dings to my car. He even did a few extra things that he didn't charge me for. I've used Dent Devils before and have also had a positive experience, so I'd fully recommend their services to anyone. A+++ read more

Eddie treated me really well and provided very affordable estimates. I had a dent on the side of my car that he was able to fix quickly. 10/10 would recommend read more

Eddie is a great guy. He is very honest and did a phenomenal job on removing a dent from my 2018 Dodge Challenger. 5 Stars!

I had a pretty nasty dent from a hit and run last night. I contacted the number the next morning, and they replied quick with an estimate then took us right in their shop. Their work was really good and fixed the damage well!! Their price was affordable and absolutely worth it. They made sure we were comfortable while they worked on my car. Eddie was super nice and helpful. He also educated me about the car and recommended me what to do next. 11/10 recommend this place!! read more

Eddie saved my day! He is a genuine and honest car repairman! I am so glad that I was able to find his shop. I knew I was in the best hands since the minute I talked to him to explain my situation on the phone. I side swiped a cement pillar and messed up my car pretty bad. Within 20 minutes, Eddie was done fixing it up and it was nearly 100% better! He charged me more than fairly! I am so thankful for Eddie. I recommend his shop to everybody! He is one hell of a guy! He even took the time to break down all of the measures he took and schooled me on the repairs. Eddie, thank you so much, you will make a great grandpa! Hope to see you again in better circumstances LOL! You make a huge difference! read more

Eddie repaired hood dents in my 2011 BMW 328i and hood and door dents in my 2017 Honda CRV. On the dents where there was no permanent paint damage, the repairs are so good you can't tell where they were. read more

Fantastic work. I truly cannot believe what a great job they did with the door on my Ford Explorer. Eddie knocked it out of the park the same day I brought it in.. If I ever need dent repair again, he'll definitely get my business. read more

Eddie is the best in the business when it comes to paintless dent repair (PDR). I've used him several times over the past couple of years and he always does an excellent job. I was originally referred to him by a co-worker of mine. Eddie fixed several dings in his Ferrari which you can see on some of his advertisements including his website. I had a huge tree branch fall on the hood of my truck, and it left quite a big dent in it. Eddie, with his specialized tools and expertise, managed to get the dent out of my hood within a couple of hours and for a fair price. About a year later, somebody dinged the door on my BMW and he fixed it without issue. On my most recent visit, somebody had put a nasty dent on my driver's side rear quarter panel. He temporarily removed my tail light to get to the dent, and once he was done it was like the dent was never there. He doesn't drill holes and will use the various access points throughout your vehicle to effectively repair the dents and dings on your vehicle without causing any further damage. Eddie also offers several other services including windshield repair. He's extremely friendly, fair and prompt. As positive as my review is, it really doesn't do him justice - check out his website for more details. I highly recommend Eddie for your PDR needs. 5 stars out of 5 all the way. read more

I just finished grocery shopping and was putting my son into his car seat in my one-month old Chevy Equinox the other day. A woman so recklessly drove out of the parking lot but not before hitting a shopping cart on her way out. Just my luck it ended up smashing against my SUV. The damage was done to the lower front driver's side fender. The impact was so hard that it dented the metal down the seam, which prevented my driver door to open. The next day I Yelped dent removal companies and I found 3 with great reviews; 2 were mobile companies and the other was The Dent Devils. I really wanted to get this fixed because having to enter my car through the passenger side is not fun! I contacted each one within minutes of one another. The 1st mobile company was flustered and just said to text him the photos and he'll get back to me. I received a text that read, "$250 - $350 and your new suv will look great again. We come to you." I replied, "what does that entail...paint?' Their response, "No. There does not appear to be any paint damage." That was it, no follow up call or anything. The 2nd was through e-mail and they got back fairly quick for more photos. Said it would be $325 with paint because they had to drill through the metal and pop it out. Yeah, no thank you! The 3rd was The Dent Devils and Eddie got back to me within minutes of the request submission with photos. Each company got 10 different angle photos of the damage, so they had the same info to go off of. Eddie asked me some questions, gave me a breakdown of the process, and gave me an estimate. I was pleased with what I heard so I headed down to the shop to get a more accurate quote...in hopes to get my dent taken care of too. I arrived to a small, but fully equipped shop just off the 163 freeway in Kearney Mesa. Eddie took a few detailed looks at the dent, said it would be just about an hour and it would be good as new. He didn't say perfect and made it clear, because let's be honest it wouldn't be perfect or I would not be there. Eddie got to work and like an artist with a fine brush on canvas he got my dent out and looking absolutely unnoticeable in 30 minutes! I couldn't be happier with the results, how fast he got it done, and how AFFORDABLE it was! I can't even tell there was a dent there at all, thank you Eddie for making my life easier again...no more jumping through the passenger door for me ;) read more

This review is long overdue! I recommend this place to anyone and everyone who needs bodywork, estimates, paint jobs, anything. We brought our vehicle here for an estimate when it got hit in a fender bender accident. We wanted to use someone who was reliable and after doing our research, found this place! Eddie is fully transparent and very trusting. He gives his professional opinion and suggestion that is reasonable for you and your situation. When working with insurance, Eddie is completely for the people! He will work as best as he can to get you the best deal and explain insurance lingo that you don't understand. We had a great experience working with Eddie in person and through phone calls. He always makes sure to call back if he misses your call and keeps you in the loop on any changes needed to be made. I have already recommended Eddie's services to a coworker of mine and she had the same experience. Reliable. Trustworthy. Informative. Professional. Thanks Eddie for being you! read more

Redoing the bumper from a confrontation with an Angry Shopping Cart! Also removed a set of door dings. This guy is the real deal. It is not a big shop, but the work is the best I've seen. The owner worked on my car and did more than he was paid to do by Allstate. I worked with a guy named Eddie, who was very nice, and came across as someone who really pays attention to details. The Dent Devils, as it stands now is like a little "mom and pop store," where the people know you and actually care about what's going on. At least that was my experience. Now my insurance company on the other hand, dropped the ball, left my car there a lot longer than in needed to be, and forced the poor guy to wait while they send an adjuster out, twice. Yada, yada, etc., etc. (I have to address that in another review). But the point of it is, that the owner Eddie, who my "old" insurance company referred me to, stood by me through all the calls, faxes and bs the insurance company threw at him for 20 days. I really should buy the guy, lunch for all of the crap he had to deal with, and to top it off. He noticed a little ding in my rental and he pulled it for me in 5 minutes, while I was picking up my other car. Who freakin' does that? Just a good dude, 5 STARS for sure! read more

Ok, for the second time my car was violated in a parking garage. She is beginning to feel like a victim. Some f**k was precious enough to rip off the exterior lock part of the handle flinging bits of her pieces across the floor. He ravaged her insides and left her there abandoned and damaged. Our helpful building man Bob notified me of the event early this morning. After having the thrill of telling dear sweet granny her/my credit card was stolen, having to cancel my accounts, learning I get to go to the DMV and have my picture taken to get a new driver's licence, getting the house rekeyed, etc.etc.etc I was DREADING the call to get the door repaired. Besides having been to a few car shops my dad worked next door to an auto repair store. So, I have seen how wonderfully they treat women. After they make the loose nut behind the wheel joke add the dumb woman discount of 150% they explain everything to you in idiot terms. Because without that y chromosome there is no way we could understand how cars work right? I started with Collision Caliber - "oh we don't give estimates". Oh, well you don't want my dollars then. Lynee temperature rising. I found Dent Devils here but I tend to stay away from places with 5 star reviews from people that have no friends and only one review. Against my better judgement I called. Eddie answers the phone himself - I appreciate this. It is nice to talk to the person in charge. Eddie asks detailed questions in a way that you can tell he talks to car idiots up to car geniuses. I.e., he explains it for a clueless person in a way that wouldn't offend someone in the know. Eddie works with people that can handle anything he can't. Eddie allows emailing of pictures to get a free estimate. Anyway, so far he has passed my girl test of being nice. Let's see if he passes the man test of fixing things properly. read more

I was driving on a freeway in LA and out of nowhere, a sharp metal object smashed into my front passenger side of my Porsche Cayman S. It had left me 2 small dents and the paint was scraped off. I tried to live with it for awhile, but it was very hard to brush it off because it was a constant reminder how ugly my car looked each and every time I pump gas into my car. I decided to turn to Yelp for help and Dent Devils had popped up in one of the searches. I took my time and read through each and everyone's feedback and thought to myself Eddie is too good to be true - there is NO WAY he is as perfect as what everyone had said about him. I decided to contact him, drove down to his shop. He checked out the 2 dents and was a straight shooter type of guy. No B.S., no cutting corner, straight to the point, friendly, blunt and put no pressure in closing this deal. He told me he charges $150 per hour, but he'll be able to fix my dents for $100. I brought my car back into his shop the very next day and Eddie fixed my dents. His craftsmanship was spotless remarkable and amazing. He took his time while he was so easy to chat with. For those of you who are reading this review, you are obviously in a search in finding someone who can fix your dent(s) in your car. Please believe me what you are reading in this review as well as what everyone had said about Eddie is true. His work is astonishing. Eddie, I can't Thank you enough for taking care of my Porsche! I am so happy to have met you! Thank you! Linda read more

Eddie truly saved the day for me. I was scammed in a parking lot and had the hood of my white car painted dingy gray by two guys who claimed they could repair some bumper scrapes on the spot using touch up paint. When I realized what they were doing, it was too late, and every place I called said there was nothing that could be done to reverse the damage. Finally, thank goodness I was referred to Eddie. As soon as I brought my car in, he knew exactly what to do to fix it. I truly thought my car was destroyed until I talked to him, and he made it look as good as new, completely reversing all the damage. He was able to remove all the gray paint without damaging the original white coat in the slightest. He is EXTREMELY knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly, and I would trust him completely, to repair any damage to my car with an expert hand. read more

I am a Automotive Tech. in Kearny mesa area and my shop sometime get an offer for a Body job from customer (Our customer base is %70 Japanese). Because of Japanese, they have a really picky eyes as well as I have(I'm also Jappanese). I have went there several times to have a Dent repair and a body work/re-paint. All work were WELL done and I have never have disappointed about their work. That was a body work for a TOYOTA FJ Cruiser(Brand new car). that did not have a data for a "Color code" yet, because was too New. When body shop guy paints your car, needs a data that tells you how to mix and make a color for your car. It is really difficult to make a color without the data. Anyway he painted one time and did it again by "himself" because he did not satisfy. Color was perfectly matched!! Very impressed with their work . I am a one of a Happy customer. Keep it up Eddie! read more

Little accident with our Tesla Model 3 left us with a dent in the rear quarter panel. Was worried it would take a full replacement of panel. But asked Dent Devils what could be done? We are really surprised at how well it turned out and at fraction of the cost of a panel replacement. Friendly, prompt and honest! This is the 3rd car we've had them work on over the past 12 years. Our other repairs were on a BMW 750li, a Maserati GT, and a Tesla Model S and I wouldn't trust my cars to just anyone. I'm one very happy, repeat customer. read more

Eddie is the best. He is extremely helpful, honest and truly a professional. He was very prompt in calling me back even though I called him on a Sunday. He gave me a verbal estimate on the phone and held true to his word when it came time to fixing the dent. No upselling or games, he is a straight up guy. Very knowledgeable and respectful. i give him the highest recommendation. Although I hope I don't have to ever go back (I don't want any dents), if the misfortune occurs I will not hesitate to go back to Eddie. read more

I had a great experience with Eddy. If you need paintless dent repair, this an excellent option. Price was very competitive and he did a beautiful job. Take your car in and get that ding fixed! read more

Three stars here. It would be one star except for a detail shop whom I really trust has recommended these guys so I believe they would do good work. I called for a quote and the gentleman stated it starts around $85. He said to send him photos. I sent him photos and then he tells me Tacoma doors are steel and he needs to see it in person. I immediately asked if I could come by that day. *crickets* This was a few weeks ago and I still haven't received a reply. I wound up going with another company who was (probably) cheaper and did fantastic work. Dent devil lost out on a customer. Maybe next time. read more

Another car scratched my bumper cover on my 2018 BMW M550 while backing out from a parking spot, and of course didn't care to leave a note, thank you very much... I couldn't live with the ugly scratches, even if it wasn't too visible, so I checked my local BMW Car Club FB group for recommendations on a body shop. I got some great suggestions including The Dent Devils. I had one other quote but decided to go with the Dent Devils, the owner Eddie is such a great guy, very good communication over text and phone call, and the end result is absolutely perfect, it looks like nothing ever happened to it. Another super satisfied customer! read more

Some a-hole bumped his/her vehicle into the front driver side fender of my 2009 Ford Mustang in the early morning hours leaving a noticeable dent. I was not happy about this. Never found out who the responsible party was which made it even worse. I decided to check around for repair shops that do PDR (paintless dent repair). I decided to try The Dent Devils in Kearney Mesa. I spoke to Eddie. He was very knowledgeable about PDR. I trusted him to do the repairs. He did not fail. The dents are no longer there. Eddie massaged those dents out of existence. I'm so obsessed with how my car looks that after purchasing the car from the dealer, I gave it the clay bar and wax treatment. I have high standards. The fact that Eddie impressed me, says volumes about his work. He is a master at what he does. For that, I am grateful. read more

Great work done on my brand new explorer by Eddie. He made sure I couldn't see the unsightly dent that my "friend" put in on a recent road trip. Eddie was quick and very knowledgeable about how to attack my problem and gave me plenty of options to choose from. I picked him for my repair because he has years of experience and he also teaches people his craft which is how you know he is a master of dent removal. When he talks to you about the process it's like he's giving you a mini class. He also will let you watch him work which was really cool. His puppy Bumper is at the shop to overlook operations too and is a friendly little schnauzer. If you need work done choose dent devils Eddie is ready to help. Plus free cookies when you check in. read more

Eddie has been taking care of my cars i.e. M3, 5.0, wife's GTI etc. for years. He's chatty and personable and his standards will exceed your own. He's truly an artist when it comes to say removing dents among everything else he does. Don't hesitate to schedule an appointment with him. He'll ensure your vehicle looks great. read more

Eddie was my last stop on a day of quotes and in really glad I stopped. After getting the typical quick 2 min look over my vehicle and an outrageous quotes from all my other stop I almost didn't even wanna go. But I'm glad I did. He took his time to identify the exact issue I was having and outlined all the steps I needed to correct it. Eddie spent almost an hour looking over my vehicle and making sure he was certain he could fix it before he said he could. And he did fantastic work. read more

I believe in giving credit where credit is deserved... And Eddie gets 5 stars!! I came to his shop last year (when he was still downtown.. i know.. its taken me a while to write a review..this is my first.. I signed up just to give Eddie this review) and he was a life saver!!! He was super nice and really worked with you, as far as pricing and what you can afford. He is a genius when it comes to Dents. He fixed my car problem in 1 hour.. and you would never ever ever have guessed I had a dent in my car..(all thanks to not seeing that pole when I backed out) read more

Someone dinged my Toyota Tacoma PreRunner. I called up Eddie. He did some work paintless dent repair (PDR) on my BMW M5 which included two door dings driver's side door and a chip in the windshield. I was very happy with the workmanship he did on it and called him again on the Toyota Truck. He does an exceptional job on the work as always. Very pleased that he took most of the dent out. It's in a tough spot in the rear just under the tail light. You can't even tell it had a ding. He explained to me about the dent and it's tough to get at it. Glad that he did the job. I wouldn't take it anywhere else. It would have cost me more if I took it to a body shop. He is the man to see. Thanks and I really appreciate it Eddie for a job well done. He is very fair prompt and professional. I wouldn't take it anywhere else. I would recommend him to anyone.Thanks Eddie. read more

Some jerk dropped a Lyft scooter onto the driver side door of my brand new Jeep Wrangler JL, leaving about a 2.5" indentation and a bulge in the larger area surrounding it. I took it for a couple informal estimates at paint and body shops I knew my insurance would honor and the estimates for repair were around the $1k range, as the repair would require repainting the entire door. The color of my Jeep is "Bikini" which is a bright deep blue-green and would be difficult to color-match. As I researched repair options I found Eddie, sent him a few pics of the damage and agreed to bring the Jeep down for him to see if he could do a paintless dent repair (PDR). Eddie agreed it was something he could do and gave me an estimate within the price range of my insurance deductible, which allowed me to side-step the claim process as I was not eager to register a claim on my brand new Jeep with such a high cost cosmetic issue. Eddie had the dent repaired the day after I dropped my Jeep off. His work is very impressive - there is no buckle or indentation in the door and you would have to look very very closely to tell any damage had occurred. The doors on my Jeep are aluminum as well, and he worked that dent out by hand which I am sure took time and effort. Eddie obviously cares a lot about his work and he is awesome at what he does. I am very pleased with the paintless dent repair he performed on my Jeep and I would not hesitate to bring future auto body issues to him. read more

"The Dent Devils", namely Eddie, has earned my respect and patronage. He's "the man", preforming absolute magic with any kind of alloy, steel or aluminum. I stumbled into his location on Grand Ave. in 2008. I consider myself astute with certain automotive repair issues so I did my due diligence to satisfy the ego manifested by the gas guzzling vehicle I was driving. Eddie politely answered every question I could ask, gave me an estimate and explained his repair process as he performed the magic. I have several reasons to visit SD, "crazy amounts of entertainment, relaxation, sea life, food, wine, one of my sons and Eddie. Eddie fits, right? I do not worry about every ding, dent and rock chip because I know Eddie can work his magic. Still driving the high end vehicles, I just paid a visit to Eddie's "new to me" shop in Kearny Mesa. He did it again, magic with an absolutely perfect result. Trust "the man" he can get it done. read more

My Lexus was dented by hit and run driver and needed new fender, windshield, and surrounding metalwork and gaskets. Eddie was a great help in working with my insurance company and fighting to get OEM parts and repairs justified and funded. He provided regular updates and now my car is better than ever! Thanks Eddie for all of your help and excellent work! read more

Eddie was wonderful! I first took my car to another dent repair place just down the street. I was treated rudely and sent away with an outrageous estimate after a two minute review of my car. Then, I went to see Eddie. . . . Shew! What a relief to finally find someone that takes pride in their work. I was very impressed with the amount of time he took with me to teach me about door dings and paint quality. I am happy to say that the quality of Eddie's work was as great as his evaluation. Thank you! read more

I ripped out the front right bumper of my beloved 350Z backing out of a parking space next to a curb. It popped my bumper and the rubber guard off the car and the crunching sound was even worse. I got 3 estimates because I was paying out of pocket to fix it, and Eddie at Dent Devils was the cheapest and most comprehensive of all the estimates for the work that needed to be done. I've had dents and door dings removed by him before when he was in PB and downtown, so I knew he was honest and a true master of his work. He did his magic and the front of my car looks brand new! He also cleared out the buildup in my headlights (noticeably different at night!) and took out another ding on the front quarter panel from when I accidently dropped a ladder against the side of the car. He is a perfectionist and was able to keep the cost pretty close to what he estimated, even though some extra work needed to be done. He let me know what all my options were based on how much I wanted to spend. I HIGHLY recommend him! read more

Writing this one for my wife. She is very happy with the work, and very much appreciated the extra service that they provided by taking care of a door ding that was not a part of the original estimate (bumper work). I've never used a service like this before, but I will now remember The Dent Devils if I ever have a need for it. read more

Highly recommend!! Very honest, good customer service and quality work. Will be referring my friends to Dent Devils for all their body and paint work. read more

Incredibly great work. Nobody could possibly tell where the dent was. Like a master at art.

Took my brand new BMW X3 in to Eddie because sadly, it arrived from Texas with hail damage...and I mean ALOT of hail strikes. Eddie spent time going over the vehicle, taking photos and meticulously counting each strike mark. His repair work was AMAZING. The car looks brand new and showroom ready. Was washed and clean ready for pick up. I hope not to need him again but if I do...I will NEVER go anywhere else. Thank you Eddie for being honest and dedicated to your work. read more
