I do. The deductable is $1000. I got everything I needed for much less.
I agree. i watched youtube videos of techs doing the magic. I bought some cheap tools from amazon and didn't work. I could not get the glue to stick.
I may buy the better tools and give it a try. If it works I will try to help others for free.

With PDR tools are only part of the process. Most of it is the skill of the person using the tools. Get some estimates.

My understanding is the bump can be pulled out, but if a crease has been formed, denting/filling/smoothing has to be done -> body repair.I suggest buying a color matching hatch and replace it. Not worth cutting welding rear quarter panel [although that would yield best results], jut tack/crew in posts and pull out the dent and follow that with block and hammer + bond + smoothen and repaint.

A professional PDR kit is $2000+ and that is only the hand tools doesn't include glue pullers.

Did you have to program the sensor and realign? Or just plugged it in and it worked? At least from the internet view, it looks pretty decent for a DIY.
