I have two aluminum headlight bezels that have a lot of little dings and scuffs around the edge. the dings are for the most part are on the edge and unlikely to be removed successfully by me. Would some type of body filler and paint be a option ??? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Yes, but it would look like it has body filler and paint.

They can be restored be prepared to spend some money.

Its funny how a new paint job will make every thing else look bad.

Are the bezels aluminum or stainless steel? If aluminum ,most are repairable with a little work and patience call around to some of the local body shops and ask them for a referral to a speciality shop that straightens and repair aluminum trim parts for them Same thing on stainless parts

They are aluminum. I'm going to try and tap out the dents and see how it goes. Worse case, I'll take it to the Pro's Thanks
