Door Ding... on my roof!

So you park out in no mans land and you still end up with what looks like a door ding... on the roof of the car! How does that happen? miniature asteroid? Acorn? So I tried heating the area (Hot sun) then use a can of air upside down to cool the surface in order to expand and contract the metal and get it to pop out. It worked a bit, but still has a small divet disrupting the smooth flow of metal. Any other suggestions aside from autobody repair? They want $200-$450 depending if they have to roll it out from under. I've had door dings fixed before for $200 and they turned out "ok", but wth it being on top it's not as noticeable. I'm not opposed to autobody repair but this is the 2nd one in 3 years...and who knows how many more.
