How much would this cost to repair?(Yamaha YTS-62)

Just boght a YTS-62 yesterday. Bought it cheap because it looks pretty bad lol but still sounds beautiful. So i was wondering how much would it cost to repair this 2 dents shown in the picture, and also was wondering if i can do anything with the paint? To make it look not so terrible...

    The dent is not a big deal. It looks like its in an easy spot to access and the bottom bow guard doesn't appear to be damaged. The lacquer is another issue. If you want the horn to look like new again, it would require relacquering which would also entail an overhaul. This will run you around $1000 at a minimum by any competent shop.
