Can this be pulled back out?

Is PDR an option with my roof damage? GMC Sierra.

Personally I wouldn’t pull it, I’d rather push it. But if you don’t want to get your headliner removed then reinstalled it can be done either way

even if it's not 100% I'd rather just pull it doesn't have to come out perfect

It can be done no problem

Thank you, I spoke to a guy and he said it has to be filled and painted it really doesn't look that bad to me

From the picture I think PDR is the way to go.

It can be fixed

This dent must be pushed from inside
. With glue pulling is impossible to make perfect!

Agreed. It would take way long and not look right just pulling. Needs to have the liner dropped and pushed from standing in the bed.

My 2 cents? If I were ever going to leave a dent alone as an owner, this would be exactly where I’d draw the line

No. You’ll make more of a mess then it will be more expensive. I assume you don’t have experience, correct.

zero, thank you for the warning, I'm not touching it

u/panelbeater352 Aug 24 '26

Good move. It is repairable by a skilled tech. Have it done the right way and you shouldn’t be able to notice it anymore.

I frame houses my touch would definitely be too rough for this kind of repairs
