Damaged Fuel Sump Tank
 

All, I have a damaged RHS sump tank (dented). I've talked to a few people out there and called Eagle, Float and Fuel, and Hartwig. Eagle/FFC won't repair them and I hesitate sending it to Hartwig due to some recommendations against. Any experience getting tanks repaired out there?

I had Heartwig repair a 0.5" crack on the filler neck of my 172.......for the hefty price of $1800! The said it was cheaper than buying a new one.....I was, but I thought the price was extremely high.

How bad is the dent? Is it cracked? Pictures?

High-end body shop or metal fabricator maybe?

Added pic. I’ve got calls into preferred, Don, and others looking for a replacement but my best lead so far is Loree air (loreeair.com).they do a lot of welded fuel tank repair and said they could probably do it but i’m waiting on an estimate.
