Advice/Question: how to fix dent in 2013?

[vancebjorn]

I plan to sell my 19' 2013 International Signature this year. It has only been used maybe five times and can truly be represented in excellent condition all around....except for one dent where it bumped a tree branch.

It isn't convenient for me to take it into a specialist for an estimate. Could someone offer a rough assessment of the cost of fixing this? It is only 3" x 1" and shallow. Does it appear it could be pulled out instead of doing a replacement of the panel and thus take it to a car dent repair place instead of an airstream repair place?

Also, more broadly - does anyone have wisdom on whether the cost/benefit is to repair a 3" x 1" dent before sale?

Many thanks!

Figure $1500 per panel. Depending on unseen damage. I have a similar ding lower down and that is what I was quoted by Jackson Center.

That ding could be pulled out and at least reduced without replacing the segment.

I would take a couple of hundred off the top end price and be done with it.

I agree, leave it alone, it isn't going to get worse, maybe next year it will see hail...

If a buyer does his home work then that's about a 3000 dollar repair. If it's insured I would get it done if not then your even with expecting a 3000 dollar reduction in sale price.
