I am new to body work, and I have a job to do on one of my personal vehicles, a small dent on the body line on the front fender of an 08 mustang. I’m looking for any suggestions on the best way to get the body lines perfectly straight again. Any ideas would help out tremendously. Thank you all in advance.

Once you have the repair in primer and blocked out I spray some wax and grease remover / panel wipe over the area and look down the panel to check for straightness. If your not happy with it, rework it otherwise it will show once painted.
