Dent pullers
Are there any good dent pullers out there for pretty big dents? i'm not looking to spend a ton of money... and id rather do it than the people who are going to paint it. Thanks!

i think itll depend on the kind of dent and the amount of money your looking to spend altho im no body work expert
you have several options for removing dents with a different results
you could use the slide hammer type im assuming this is what harbor freight sells
ive not used them but seen it used once my understanding of them you have 2 options
one they have a weld stud you weld to the center of the dent then use the slide hammer to pound it out this leaves a weld stud that need to be ground down then refinished
i think theres also a screw in type same basic thing but leaves a hole to patch then refinish
slide hammer

then there is suction cup dent pullers that should pull the dent fairly cleanly and should be paintless repair depending on the dent im not sure how well these work
suction cup style

those are the most common that i know of for the simple do it your selfer
however if you have the coin and what not you can look into more professional painless dent repair options like this
