If it was my car...

I would take off the inner door panel and try to bump that crease out. Then I would try to straighten the aft lip of the fender in front of the door, enough so it wouldn't catch on the front edge of the door when it's opened. Then I would use a ball pein hammer and massage the front lip of the door so it tucks in behind the fender. It wouldn't look any better, but I can't stand wind noise/squeeks/rattles in my cars.

Doesn't it leak when it rains?
