It's such a small ding that it shouldn't be so bad to repair like that
Thanks for the recommendation - I do have a lead on a replacement front bezel from someone here. I may try it this too, but cosmetic is not my strong suite. Lift a pad, break a trace, no problem. This is right on the front sticking out like a wart.
I did try to "push" it back in, but it's very hard, would need a clamp to put enough pressure to push it back in I think (which may break something else
If someone did have an example of a cosmetic fix in a visible area like this I'd love to learn more though.
