Doh!!! Put a small dent in my Intake

I'm a moron. I was installing my washer Led's and I dropped my socket right on the lower intake tube of my AEM CAI. It's pretty small and it's one of those things that are going to drive me absolutely crazy for the longest time. any ideas on ways to get out small dings on the intake tube?? Thanks

Don't touch it. It's my experience that something like that will only get worse if you try to hammer it out or something. Just go with it until you can afford a new one. . Then try to hammer it out. if you can't then just buy new. that's my only opinion.

I scratched my intake with the wrong strut bar, I went to a graphics place, and got them to make me a red "H" and put that over the scratch. It doesn't look bad at all, and it only cost $4.00
