Question Alternatives/options for repair of roof hail damage

Hi all

My pristine BF Falcon wagon (2nd car) with very low kms was pummeled by hail a few weeks ago, especially the roof. I can replace panels, doors etc, but roof is an issue.

Traditional paintless dent repair is hugely expensive.

Are there any cheaper alternatives available that people have used that last? Vinyl roof covering? Some sort of fibreglass "lid" etc.

Thanks.

Induction dent removal, it uses magnetic heat to pop the dent.
