I have discovered a dent on my trunk lid. It goes "outward" as if I had packed my bagage trunk too much and it has pushed it out. It is located just under/over one of the bars that holds the hood in place.

Anyone has had this? Can it be pushed down or "rolled in" without damaging the paint?

Hallå Jan. We have a lot of paintless dent removal (PDR) companies in the US. Here in Washington, D.C. I have used DentMasters with good results. Metal panels that have been stamped have a memory and with some pushing will go back to the original shape. Here are some before and after pictures of their work:





I am sure you can find PDR places in Stockholm. Best of luck.

too late for this time but Pelican sells an insert that can be attached to the inside of the hood; it's purpose is to reduce the chance of that problem

i have to order one before it is too late, so to speak.

An up-ding. I did mine on the 2nd day of ownership by leaving the cord for the trickle charger out unstowed and then closong the hood.
Paintless dent removal guys are the way to go. Search on Google in your area.
