What with the Sheet Metal on these HHR's?

HHR PNOY - Was the dent towards the front where the hood slopes down?
I'm wondering because I have about the same predicament and it is in the location described above. I am wondering how much it will cost to fix it.

I have one small dent on the front of the hood (my fault), very light hail damage from my trip to Denver (it could have been much worse as hard as the hail was coming down), a small dent just abouve the front drivers side wheel (mystery), and one small dent in the liftgate (my fault, mower threw a rock). Considering I've had my car for a year and a half and put over 40,000 miles on her, that's not bad IMO. Like courthousedeb, I park far away from others and walk rather than have some idiot bang thier door into my car.

That's where I have a dent. I pushed down on the corner of the hood and put a small golf ball sized dent where the hood slopes down. I have been considering trying the hair drier/air duster method to eliminate it. Will post results after it has been tried.

So far no dents in the HHR. The wifes MPV has two, one from a flying rock off of a weekwacker, the second she closed the garage door with the hatch open.....
I park in spaces that look ok to me at the time. Park far away and you loose you "blockers" from carts....
It's not thinner on the HHR than 90% of all cars of the same year.

If you go the PDR route, I can't imagine it would cost more than if the dent were in other places, but I don't know for sure. I've heard PDR cost about $70 per dent, and I don't want to turn in 3 dents to my insurance just to have them raise my rates . Hopefully the DIY method will work and I won't have a problem any longer. I heard in the old days, they would set the car in the hot sun and use dry ice to remove dents

I am not experienced enough in body work to do it myself, so I don't mind paying $140 or a little more to get them fixed professionally.
