No, I've not done that. That area held up reasonably well on the 350, so I didn't think it would be needed.

Default An Atypical IS500 shot

Holy Shi+. You may all appreciate the visceral feeling of seeing an indentation on your baby. Only made worse knowing you made it yourself.
It's amazing what can be done by having the right knowledge and tools.

Dent pullers also wear capes...
She's back to normal now.

Awesome. I am in the same boat. In fact, you might be able to see it in one of the photos I posted above (just behind the fuel door). I've got an appointment next week to get mine looked at! Hopefully it was just a dent - no paint damage?

That’s actually the first time I’ve seen an odometer post while driving.
