Dent on hood

Ok I have NO idea how this happened, but i have a roughly quarter-sized dent, but stretched to an oval shape, about 2" away from my windshield washer spary nozzle. Any ideas on what to do to get it out/make it less visable? thanks!

well, you could try to pull the dent out with a sucktion cup or tap it out with a rubber mallet. Not a hard fix especially for the access to the back side of the dent.

You could also try the "heat and ice" method of dent fixing. Do a search for "ice trick" on this forum.
