Angry How is a small dent in fiberglass side of bed repaired?

Looks like the landscapers' lawnmower picked up a rock and slung it into the side of the bed causing a quarter sized chip/indentation.

I am so pissed. I park the truck away from those planters to keep my distance from the landscapers, and I get screwed anyway.

I can't download pics right now because this computer lacks the software.

How does this get repaired? Does the entire panel get replaced?

Glass is an easy repair. Don't sweat it.

The bed is NOT fiberglass.. it is some poly resin material.

Does that mean it is an easy repair? What is used to fill the indentation?

Fiberglass, poly resin, plastic who cares... either way it isn't easy to fix.
