Is scarring likely on this bell?

Post by CrisHagmannBone »

Hello everyone I recently got a horn and unfortunately the bell was damaged in the shipping process. I wanted to ask if it’s possible for this bell to be repaired to where you couldn’t tell it was damaged at all. I know it’s just a cosmetic thing but part of the reason I wanted this horn was because of the pristine condition of the bell. I included a picture of the damage.

There will be visible marks where the peaks of the creases are.
