Put a 1/2" long, barely noticeable dent in the LCD panel aluminum cover

Has anyone taken one of these apart? Could probably push it out with my thumb!

http://www.pbparts.com doesn't show a separate listing for the aluminum cover alone, only the whole assembly .... $1049 ... ahem!

Simplest "fix" will be to cover it up with a little stick-on Dell logo ... or maybe something from RadioShack would look good too!

CAUTION: That pretty aluminum case is DAMNED soft!
