Thumbs down Help?

Okay so today might not of been the best day. So make a long story short I dented the right hand side of our stainless steel Whirlpool refrigerator. Does anyone know where Im going to be able to get one of these or maybe even check out how much this is going to cost me to get it fixed? I've got the model number and all but Im just looking to try to find a rough estimate before I call around tomorrow.

Why is this dent any different than what you'd do to your truck?
Get one of those automotive dent pullers.

Its not even a dent, its more of a crease, like you can't feel the metal dip down but you can see it. Stuiped stainless steel.

sounds like you're gonna need a new panel. I think its gonna be real hard , if even possible to get the crease out.

Thats where I went, I couldn't find a whole panel so I emailed them. However I did find a few things that might be what I need.

Guess 1

Guess 2

Really hoping this isn't it!

Easy fix:

Duplicate the dent on the opposite side of the current dent. That way it will look like it was originally designed that way…
