Go to a panel beater , its a joke , they bolt on plastic grills all day . Repair a damaged guard ! What actually use a hammer and dolly
Mike,
How right you are, the world is now full of button pushers. I feel glad I had an apperticeship and have now been in vehicle and plant engineering for 37 years.

Unless you can find a bodyshop that does restorations, you are likely to have a "ready-mix applicator" as modern cars do not last long enough to worry about panel beating.
