Will do. It's one dent in the front wing. It's right above the trim line and I did manage to get it to pop out so that it barely noticed but it only takes a tiny bit of pressure, even going over a bump, and it pops back in. The others are scuffs on the bumpers on the corners - one where I scraped a brick wall and the others were on there when I bought it.

At the risk of incurring the wrath of every purist out there, I'm toying with the idea of getting it wrapped. I've not looked into that though and would want to have a really good job done including all the bits you can't see when the doors are closed, for example.

A few words of warning about wrapping..
It's only as good as the body/paint work under it. If you have any imperfections in the paint such as chip scuffs etc most will show in the wrap.
And it will probably cost more than repairs and painting.
