Default dent in the floor of my driver's seat

I let my friend help fix my car and I he messed up my floor. He jacked up the car in the wrong spot and it made a dent in the floor on the driver's side. The side near the clutch area has like...this big bump and is uneven now.

Is there anyway I can like hammer it down...? Or make the floor even again?

a hammer?

id take out the carpet so your sure to do it more evenly, but if your gonna hammer it, take a block of wood, and place it where you want to hammer, then hammer the block of wood. thatll keep you from hitting the wrong spot, and from just driving a hammer through your floorboard.

either that or charge your friend for some new sheetmetal to be welded to your floor.

Well the hammer was a figure of speech, I'm pretty sure you can't hammer that bump down? So I just have to replace it pretty much? No way of bending it back

Why not?

Pull up the carpet, grab a block of wood and a big hammer, and have at it.

You need a BFH. A dead blow is nice.

Close. The "F" rhymes with trucking.

I'd suggest a Port-A-Power, but I can;t think of much to push against in that area.
