It's not a really large or even deep dent but jebus...can't I have nice things???

Does anyone know of any things I can do to try to pop this little blemish out? I really hate to take it to a body shop and get reamed for such a small blemish.

Thanks!
Have it pdr'ed if its small amd can gain access, it can be pushed out

Truth. I had a nasty little dent removed and you cannot tell it was ever there.

Shop around. As long as it's a "smooth" dent (no creases), you should be able to find a body shop or PDR place that can fix the dent for a reasonable cost. You may be able to DIY - if you can access the back of the dent, try pushing it out.
