I do and i also have a harbor freight set of body hammers/dollys. The Dents i hammered out of the chrome steel bumper though arent etirely smooth. Flat but a bit ripply. I dont have the tools for smoothing it.The edge curves so it wuldnt be a straight bend but a compound bend all the way around. I belive that means shrinking/stretching. Also I couldnt use the really thin gauge because i need some strength. I know any shape can be formed in sheet metal with the right hand tools and alot of skill. Im not sure i could easily learn the skills to make it look good.
