if you can reach it from the inside you can typically massage them out with a knuckle or the back of a screwdriver, (something hard but round)...

just be careful not to get carried away or youll make a mess.

if you cant do it well take it to a dent guy, and theyll have em 99% back to perfect for under $100

perhaps bumnah can help you with that, he LOVES bondo (R)

but no, avoid bondo at any and all costs. you use it when theres no other option.

i went to a boomer after a hail storm we had, he asked for everything i had on me to start working, and i dickered with him on a bunch of other little dings and dents. Ended up having him take out about 5-6 difficult dents for around $80. a regular established dent wizard would have proly charged $150+ for the same service, but he had to take fof the hatch panel and work a really bad dent due to someone pegging me with an SUV. looks pretty good now, def worth the money.
