Removing dent in the bumper

H.Solo · 04-30-2006, 12:10 PM

So, I finally got the first dent in my car...

I opened the trunk and wanted to put a can of BMW leather cleaner in and it slips out of my hand and leaves a nice little dent right on the edge of the rear bumper above the PDC-sensor...

It didn't leave any scratches, just that little dent (5x10mm and 0,5mm deep) so I don't worry too much about bringing it to detailing or something... as it doesn't show too much.

Any ideas, how I can get rid of it?

Someone from a german forum suggested heating it up a little with a hair dryer, the dent might then come up again... any opinions?

Are you serious?

Yesterday the car was standing in the sun for half a day and the dent came out a little...

I think I'll have to live with the remains of it...
