Hey everybody!

As you can see (photos below) my Macbook Pro has a pretty good dent in it right beside the power button. I'm wondering if anyone here has any first-hand experience or advice to share when it comes to repairing a dent like this. I don't particularly care about it looking pretty; I'm hoping to smooth it out just enough so that the lid closes nicely and all of my ports are accessible.

I will be replacing the LCD on this Macbook relatively soon, so I already plan on disassembling the case at least somewhat at that time, and I figure that will also be a good opportunity to try and bend things back into shape a little.

Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you!
