actually you can make it decent ... you need a heat gun and to heat it from the inside ... it will then pop out pretty clean except for a very small area ...body shop next door did it for my wifes mini-van . ..that was untill she did it again and messed up the bumper

I think that Steve is referring to getting the dent out only. Once the paint is cracked body work either repaint or replacement becomes the order of the day.

Sorry to hear about your car, same thing happened to my car when I was parked at the movies. I got under the car, with a club (steering wheel one) and popped it out. I could still see stress lines, but it looks much better. I just left it this way because it's a 94 and needs some bodywork anyway. but you may want to take it to a body shop. Good luck
