Default Pulled a dent now what?

Okay so I backed into someones bumper with my 97 accord on the passanger door molding little before the door meets the fender. I had quite a large dent but it almost completly pulled out, except for a small crack in the paint and little indentation.

My problem right now is that the fender was pushed in just a little bit. Can't really notice unless you see it in the sun or up close. I have removed the plastic in the wheel well and tryed pushing it in. It pops out the quarter or less of an inch but then pops right back in. What do you think I should do? I was thinking of stuffing some styrofoam in there, between the frame and the fender just to hold it out. Any other ideas?? (other then anytype of body work because it isn't really needed at all) Its nothing major just noticeable sometime when the sun hits it just right. Thus being able to tell that it was bumped.

Also do you think that dry ice may help to relieve some of the stress marks from pulling the dent out? I'll try to post some pictures if they will help tommorow.

Anyone got any ideas, or ever tried using dry ice with some type of results?
