Advice from NW Rivian Owners

[BTOR]

TAPS is a paintless dent repair place in PDX. I think it's a solo operation, with Todd the owner essentially doing it all. He's great! I used him for a small dent last year. He seems to really love working on Rivians and way more capable and confident with more horrendous dings than any other place I've found. Also much more affordable than taking to a body shop. Highly recommended.

Thank you for providing more details!

My kiddos backed the truck up into a tree (see attached photo).

Took it to the Rivian approved shop outside of Portland (Precision Body and Paint) they quoted me and eye popping $11,500 to fix it by cutting the side panel in half and replacing it.

I then called up TAPS (paint-less dent repair) and the gentleman, Todd, said he believes he can get it back to 85%-90% of shape and then I could likely have some filler put on and sanded to smooth it out before having it repainted.

This seems like a more economical way to go.

My question is, does anyone have a shop in or near Portland they'd recommend to have do this? I don't really wanna go back to Precision as I feel like because they're the "Rivian approved" shop, they just charge you double.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations.

Found a new one on Ebay for $150 and replaced it myself for the win.
