    depends how long it's gonna take to repair it tbh. some times big dents like that you can push out fairly easy from behind then it's just a case of tidying up the rest where the metals stretched. you usually find the damage on the edges is holding the dent in (if you push it out from behind and it pops back in as soon as you let go)
    it looks repairable but you'll have problems with the edges, if they're bent out of shape there's not much you can do tbh

    got a feeling you cant get to a lot of that from behind,
    so it would need to be pin'ed out,
    and that will take a lot longer,
    gonna be looking at the 320-480 region...
