well if it was meant for me, I would have got it, but now with my 6.49 bottle of cladding paint from Lexus, I am just going to keep my LS, after my 200k fix, it runs just like new again and the dent dont bother me, I really like having that $1912 in the bank..These photos taken today, what do you guys think? really

I wouldn't be able to live with it. But that's just one opinion. What matters is what you think, and if you're happier with the $1912 in the bank then don't worry about it.

Well Billy if you are going to keep the dent the only other option now is to have a matching dent on the other fender, to balance it out.

At least get PDR person to look at the dent.

I think we all choose those things that we're OK with. I've got paint issues on the top of my bumpers on my 1998, but with the condition of the rest of the car being great. It does not bother me. It's almost 20 years old and I don't expect perfection.
If the dent was on the other side I probably wouldn't care as I'd hardly see it. But on the driver side? I'd probably drop by the PDR guy and just see what he could do just so I'd know.

But great job on the paint... hmmmm, maybe I should bring mine over and you could touch up my bumper..

the PDR guy said it would not come out with out leaving a wave on the fender, and that would be $375.. I would rather hjave a dent than a wave... when I get into the car I dont even see it, without LOOKING RIGHT AT IT...

Did he explain why there would be a wave? Doesn't he know how to shrink it? And that should be done from the inside area if needed.
