yeah i realise that but i was more interested to see if he cut it out and welded in new steel rather than beating and bogging

I beat/bogged mine when i did it. It doesnt take a great amount of bog to smooth it once you beat it.

yeah like sabbath i beat out the dent in the shock tower then gave it a skim of bog. as for the other factory dents like under the battery tray and on the opposite side i cut them out and welded in sheet metal.

check out my build you will get a idea of how i did it. Kempy's VH SL/E 355i
