don't you'll only dent your bonnet, long screwdriver can release the catch from the grill

very easy to do, if your stuck ask someone to pop the bonnet, then show you where it moves, its very easy

you wont dent the bonnet!!
this happens all the time with older cars at work, as already said push up and down on the bonnet at the front where the catch is
