Does the hammer actually work? how does that work? That almost seems like you would do more damage, after all, it's not like you unwrap the aluminium and then use the hammer to bang out the dents and then re-wrap the aluminum around the case (or do you)?

Does she have a Rimowa like this? I found it on eBay, it's described as an "Antique RIMOWA CAR TRUNK Luggage chest travel suitcase w/ tags LARGE" (I don't know if it's actually a Rimowa, I don't even know what it is. It's listed as a Rimowa though.)
