my friend did the same thing 2 weeks after he painted the whole car, needless to say he was pissed! his dented in those two pieces on the side too, they are part of the car and dont come out without cutting them out, he said he's gonna do some kind of welding crap so he can pull out the dents then i guess ues filler to get it perfect, my advice to you is to take it to a professional and see what they have to say, sorry about your luck man
