Dented boot lid help please

Hello all.

Is it possible to get this dent out?.

I'm in central London area.

Thanks

Andy:
A good dent repair man could get it out,

Carpy25:
my opinion NO you would never be happy with it, too close to the badge swage and the screen to do without a fill and paint  , plenty of cheap tailgates about cut your losses and fit a good black one  :happy2:   

Sorry Rob

r5gtt:
Yes and no  :popcornsoda:

To get a black one cheap in very good scratch less condition and then refit any missing parts is going to be a pain tbh and I'd rather not get into that if possible.

I was thinking a heat gun gently heating the inside untill it feels warm enough to push out might do the trick???

I'm going to see what dansmith180 says as he works for a company that do paintless dent repairs. If not then I'll have to buy a black boot lid and mess about with fitting it.

Thanks

Carpy25:
check some of the prices on here , don't seem to be GTI but cheaper than dent repair ?
