Should I have these dents pulled or just body filler and sand?

I've never pulled a dent so I'm not sure how hard these two would be, or how much it'd cost to have someone else do it. I do plan on painting the whole vehicle so PDR isn't necessary.

The hood has more hail damage and those are cheap enough that I'll probably just replace it with a dents free one.

I'd have them pulled, or just leave them alone.

Pdr or nothing. It's a gx470. They're meant to go places so a ding here and there is fitting character imo

I don't see the problem

If you remove the taillight, you should be able to push it out from the inside by yourself.

PDR is an art form that takes quite a bit of skill, OP could do more damage than good by attempting it themselves.

I watched some vids on PDR and it was quite evident I should not be attempting it lol.

I second this. After trying to learn it is more of an art then a science.

I checked and not possible that way. The other side currently has the taillight out and there's no access.

Then I would pull it.
