Well, because no one else has answered...
I'd get some bodyshop quotes, and get them to do it. When I was rearended, that piece of metal where the trunk keyhole is needed to be replaced, and they cut it out and replaced it with a new piece.
As for the other dents, they should be accessible from inside the car once the trim panels have been removed. The art of paintless dent removal has really improved in recent years, and that should be fixed no problem.
Then a final coat of paint, and it will look like new.
Anything is possible to fix, it's only metal.
(My car was rearended twice last month, and twice the year before that. Looks like new again
