Yes, you should be fine. I just pounded out the dent a few minutes ago.

I had the fender off and everything is good underneath.

The only reason it's dented in the first place is because while I had it off the road at the beginning of this past winter, some ice got in behind the fender and bent it into the path of the door, when I opened the door, it hit the fender and bent it. I don't think this car has ever been hit.
