 Coming back to the dent in question. .. You could just paint it black so it looks like a bullet hole. . Or use one of those stickers like that. .. *eek*

I recently came across a "repaired" tank, looked really good, had an equivalent dent too but further forward... the PO filled it with lead and had it chromed over. Looks great but it sure is heavy.
