have you taken the arch liner out? if so you should be able to get a hammer to it to push it out better? i dont think its a new wing job,

push out, light filler, sand, spray = happy Will...

If theres a crease you wont get it back to normal sadly. You will need to use filler to get it perfect again. In regards to the wing flexing? Can't see how it does.

It's not creased, its just cause the 2 dents are close, and MadGT i like that heating technique, i can see the logic behind that, ill give it a try tomorrow!
