You just need an even bigger dent, so no one notices that one...

Or draw something around it so when people ask "why did you draw pacman on the side of your car?"
you can say "so you don't see the dent"
to which they'll reply "what dent?"

Lee, sorry to see/hear about this. I know how well you treat your car...only to turn around and watch it bite itself in your own hands .

If I'm not mistaken, with the removal of a few interior bits behind the seat...the backside of that bit of sheetmetal should be accessible (from a top-down approach vector near the hardtop base latch mechanism -- that too might need to be removed for better thru-access) to a dent repair shop that is skilled with levering tools to spoon that dent back out . Stop obsessing in your garage...and take it to a reputable shop for a quote .

- Dave

PS. On to 'funner' thoughts... How are you enjoying your new iPad?

Thanks for the kind condolences

So far I have been unable to find any fixadent people.
I would rather try that first to avoid all the drilling,filling,sanding and painting.

For now, I just put my magnetic American flag over the mess so I don't see it each time I get in the car.

Lee, it is the same person they just go back and fourth. But I went to the Westgate Rd. location because it was closer. I would call for an appointment before you travel all the way here.

I don't care much, or let imperfections like that, get to me. It happens. Keep rolling.

So sorry to hear that but, Mat 6:19-21 says...

19 "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal;
20 "but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.
21 "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
