that wouldnt work, there is a fold in the dent

@OP

use a hair dryer/heat gun, heat up the area, then slowly push out the dent, it wont be perfect but it will due

just think of it like this, if you mess it up its just an excuse to buy an amuse bodykit(replica or original whichever you prefer)

I agree, heat it up & carefully work it out from the inside, won't look perfect but some if done quickly will come out better without paint cracking

^ This is why I read the thread before I give advice on an issue that's already been solved.
