Before you completely pull the fender, it may be worthwhile to try this first. Just need a hairdryer and some airduster. Not sure if it will work with something that big but it's worth a try.

again... it doesnt work on small dents... try it on the big one on your fender. As long as the metal is not creased, it should come out
