How bad is it? You can pick up a basic PDR kit for well under $100. Loads of instructional videos out there on how to do it. Could get good enough to take care of the occasional door ding or such. Even if you can't save the fender it could be a good learning experience.

its not bad, its the size of our side markers, literally right above the side the paint is chipping and something similar happened to another car of mine, pdr guy said it would be possible to do it from pdr since the paint is chipping already

The top part is rounded. I might ask my mechanic if he's got a quick way the next time I'm there for an oil change or something

I don't shake, but I can't take a picture worth shit.

Edit: my youngest son is much more on the autism spectrum than me. He is 16 and a junior in high school. He goes to diesel mechanics vocational school in the afternoons. When we did the job today he put on his uniform from school. He is such a great kid. We will be doing much more on the car together.
