Default Dented Roof (Lexan)

Is there any way known to remove a dent from a glass "Lexan" corvette roof?


Thanks,

Actually this one was caused by a mighty idiot trying to push it down really hard near the front bolts.

I will when I get home. It is barely noticeable except my eyes go to it like glue! The guy who owned it before me had a little trouble getting the threads to catch on one of the front bolts on the glass roof so he banged down on it thinking it was glass and put a small hand size dent. You cannot get at the dent location from the back it is right over the bolt location blocked from the inside by the plastic.

Thanks,

John
