Pics of damage? Paintless dent is very limited. |

I bash mine with a large hammer or hide it with checkerplate  but that doesnt help you.
Where about were you when you did it? |

my vote also goes to leaving it there... if the paint is cracked or scratched, get a can of touch up paint made up from an auto shop and touch it up (or do my trick and spray it with black rust guard). otherwise, why not get a price from a panel place to pull the dent and touch it up? small dents arent all that expensive to fix professionally and the end result would be far better. |

For small dents I've found a great little trick. Use dry-ice to freeze the dent for about a minute then let it warm up. Repeat that 2 or 3 times and the dent should pop out. Its worked a treat for me a couple of times. It helps working in a lab so I can 'borrow' some dry-ice when needed. |

think of dents as like dimple dies to strengthen you panels and scrapes are like extra strenth panel folds. they all make for a tougher car
