Default Dent removal advice.


Well I woke up to find a dent in my bonnet not sure how it got there but need advice on removal. I've tried using a dent puller but due to the dent being so close to the crease on the bonnet it won't fully stick. Don't want to use glue sticks in case it damages the paintwork, and because the bonnet is reinforced underneath I can't get to it that way. So any ideas or help would be useful I'll post some pics showing the dent, if that helps. Thanks in advance.

Ive cut away the the structure belo to get at dents before now and a decent dent guy might be able to do something with that but you should look at getting a decent 2nd hand bonnet there are plenty around in that colour you will probably save money in the long run as long as the 2nd hand one is good.
Just my opinion.

Yeah that might be the way to go. I think I'll start looking for a 2nd hand one. Thanks for the advice.

get a local dent company out , may as well try and get it repaired first , yes you will probably have small drill hole under the bonnet , but that way you won’t loose your decals
