Could damaged trim be repaired....???

Of course damaged trim can be repaired . . . but I've never seen repaired trim look like undamaged stuff. What you need is a trim hammer (a really small body working hammer), a hard surface, and a lot of patience. Take the trim piece off and hammer from the backside - slowly, slowly, slowly. The book says to use a spiral pattern, from the center out, Like I said, I've never seen one that came out "perfect" - they always had wrinkles, pits and such. Maybe the body man wasn't all that good . . . I don't know.

If it's a daily driver or occasional driver, it will get damaged. Accept that. If it's a show car that doesn't go anywhere, by all means, replace it with new OEM parts.
