You can work out the dents on an English Wheel which I don't have but my buddy has at his machine shop. I'm not sure how much effort I will put into that since almost all of it will be covered with some graphics. It can also be done with a hammer and dolly. At this point I might leave it as is, but that is not a "set in stone decision". It might be better to cover the head of the hammer with something slightly flexible to reduce the distortion, but the distortion is what you need to get the compound curve. This is somewhat new ground. In my old body man days I used a hammer a dolly on VW fenders and then a body file to finish the metal without bondo. Thicker aluminum would be much easier to file smooth and use a urethane primer then block sand to finish, but that ain't happening this time.
