getting behind a pil;l
I have 2 ugly dents on the front a pillar ( i guess thats the name) directly above the front window in a coupe. They are located about 6 inches diagonally abouve the side mirrors. The dents where pushed in with someones palm trying to shake my car. Is there any way to remove that front pillar cover on the inside to get behind the dents and knock then out, do u have any other suggestions. I dont really want to pay much for dent removal. the dents are not creased and there is no paint damage. Thanks for ur help.

I dunno how bad the dents are but put your car in a warm place and get a hair dryer. Then blast the place with a bunch of hot air making it really hot. Theu take a cube of ice and circle the point farthest in with an ice cube.
What will happen is when the metal is hot it expands, and the sudden cold yanks the molecules back together and after doing it a fewe times the dents should be much less noticable, if not gone.
