There are some write-ups on the Net on how to do this. Yes, it does sound very scary to do. Again, I didn't mind doing it to my junker Honda, but I would prefer to go a safer route on the Porsche. Like Yellowboxster1 described too, I want to avoid paying a shop to just go after my fender with a baseball bat too!
