Nose dents?
Anyone have these and know how to fix it? My car is going to be painted a dark blue metallic and i wanted to fix the big dents in my nose while i was doing the body work ... I was planning on maybe steel supports or something? Anyone ever do this ... Im leaning more toward NOT having to buy a new nose Thank You

Those come from pushing the car by hand backwards my buddy had the same problem on his old 82 S/E Firebird (problem child!) We took a heat gun and heated them up and a good suction cup to pull them back out into position and then let them cool.

oxygen/actelyne torch will work just fine 
If ya don't have a heat gun, just get a hair drier on high/hot and do your best.
