yea, if ya cant get to it from the back with a screwdriver or something then probably use the pin puller. repairin it will be alot cheaper than buyin a new bonnet mate

I saw a piece in Autocar IIRC about a Clio with a dent quite a bit bigger than this. They were discussing paintless dent removal (PDR) and they managed to remove damage that was probably twice the size and they said the repair was flawless.
It would probably be worth searching yell.com for PDR technicians in your area or try dentsolutions.co.uk if you are in the Yorkshire area.

"Navy" N17 TWO
Mine had a dent in the exact same place...
2 lads jumped across my bonnet and left a knee-dent just above the reno crest and a few dings in the bonnet :angry:
It was a "new bonnet job" as the metal is too weak at the "crumple point"
Cost around £500 fitted/painted - didn't need the wings done

only just seen this post, if you have replaced your bonnet, you got taken for a ride.
Had a similar dent after *cough* running a mate over.......... long story, and dent master in kent sorted it, it wasnt 100% flawless, i could see the flaws, but no-one else could. Cost me £100+ vat, this included having a door ding taken out.
