La Jolla’s upscale shopping at Westfield UTC, the Village, and Prospect Street parking means door dings are a constant reality for luxury vehicle owners.
Dent Time serves La Jolla with mobile service throughout the area and a full shop facility in Escondido for more complex work.

For most dents La Jolla drivers encounter — door dings in parking lots, shopping cart hits, minor impacts — paintless dent repair is the smarter choice. It costs roughly one-third what a body shop charges, takes hours instead of days, and keeps your original factory paint completely untouched. PDR leaves no Carfax record and preserves your vehicle’s resale value.
La Jolla’s compact Village parking, the busy UTC mall complex, and valet zones along Girard Avenue are the biggest sources of door dings and parking lot dents. The coastal cliffs attract weekend traffic that packs every available space near the Cove and Children’s Pool.
Paintless dent repair uses specialized tools to work the metal back to its original shape from behind the panel — no sanding, no filler, no repainting. A trained technician accesses the dent through existing openings and uses precision pressure and high-intensity lighting to restore the surface to factory condition. The result is invisible, because the original paint was never disturbed.
Dent Time’s mobile technicians serve La Jolla Village, Bird Rock, Wind ‘n Sea, the UTC corridor, and the Torrey Pines area. They come to your home, your office, or wherever your vehicle is. For larger jobs, hail damage, or work requiring optimal lighting and full tool access, the Escondido shop delivers a flawless result.
