Aluminum bonnet question and dilemma

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:]is the only way to repair the nose of the hood (the raised part where you push down) with filler?[/QUOTE]Good luck getting to the area in question. It is permanently covered up by a support panel where the latches attach.
 
Rick, Sorry but I forgot to mention that most body shops have suction pullers. I have one and I can't believe I forgot about it. They work very well in the right situation and rarely damage the area worked on. Mine is a large one, about 5 inches across and I use it for buckles in doors and large panels. They make smaller ones. Just a thought. PJ
 
I have a couple of smaller suction pullers, about 2.5"-3" in diameter. How big do you need it to be to fix the dent?
