That huge dent popped back out clean, and you can't even tell it was there other than a small scratch where initial impact was made.

Very cool....

anyone have any experience with the molded bumpers? I plan on using a heat gun to bow out a dent it’s a sealed hollow bumper. So you can’t get at it from the back side

Good morning all. We will hit the road later this morning for Florida. I will probably rain a lot along the way. We plan to stop at Macon Harley and maybe Tifton too, we'll see. I could use a new tshirt now that I have shrank. Everyone ride safe.

Hair dryer on the dent, NOT a heat gun. Using a hot glue gun, apply glue to the dent and a separate glue stick to put into the glue to act as a handle.

Heat the area with the hair dryer and pull the dent out. Then carefully peel off the glue. No damage. You're welcome.
