I think so, but it definitely requires paint.

If you have the money you can always have a body shop weld on more metal and flare it out or do whatever you want. Expensive but then even if you rub the metal will flex whereas bondo/frp etc.. will just crack.

Even if they flex larger dents out, heat shrink the sheet metal, sand it down, reprime, etc...usually they still put at least SOME fiberglass filler in and block it down real thin in order to make it as smooth as possible.

As far as rear fenders from excessive rolling...methinks they could possibly sand it all down and heat shrink the metal a little bit and probably do it * almost * no fiberglass.

In my experience, the less fiberglass = the more skilled the bodywork.
