Unfortunately, from your description, it sounds like your insurance company will be getting a call
. Good luck.
Many years ago, there was a severe hail storm in the Collegeville / Royersford area that damaged a large # of cars. My friend who owns a body shop was inundated with claims. I helped him ID the dents for the claimant's insurance.
One method that they used to fix the roof dents was to use dry ice on the dent, then follow with a warm towel. The superchilling then rapid heating would "pop" the metal back to the original shape by contraction and expansion. This worked on a lot, but not all of the dents.
In fact, there was recently a post on the Rennlist forum describing the new way, using the aerosol spray "dustoff" or something, that is used for keyboards. When inverted, and sprayed, it will freeze an area, then as it evaporated and warmed, it claims that the dent would "pop".
Are you still planning on bringing the Bunny to Summit?
