I know this is sort of a ridiculous question because 'Series Rovers are supposed to have dents,' but just how easy is it to remove a dent from a Series? Say someone leaned on your truck and put an elbow mark in the panel, for instance..........

would PDR remove it pretty easily or is aluminum not going to work the same way? thanks...

Hammer and dolly. I removed several complicated dents on the front wings of my s3 using a hammer and dolly. It was the first time Ive ever done this type of thing and the results were amazing. I just did some research on the web on various techniques and went to town on some spare scraps (old wings, doors).

There is one caveat. If the dents are very deep or complicated, then you really should anneal the area after each hammering session. If you don't anneal the alunminum, you risk cracking it.

Instructions are in the green book.
