over 70k miles, our bonnet (hood) has accumulated some dents & chips, from flying stones etc ...

it's made from aluminium, of course, so ... should we get the paint-shop to make it pretty again, or will corrosion not be a problem ?

It won't rust like a steel one, it just won't look pretty

Me was told that styling (that Japanese art to remove dents with special tools) aluminium is far more difficult than styling steel, so maybe first inform at a styling workshop.
Good luck Chris.
