The issue is that once you stretch metal, it's stretched... Paintless dent removal evens it out as much as possible, which is fine 99.999% of the time...

On a corner... a bit more difficult, doable, but difficult. EVEN if it is done, and done well, it'll ALWAYS be visible



And they won't do bondo on such small dings usually, they COULD for the fender, but holy crap, your insurance has gotta be cheap to do that...
