This thing looks amazing!!!
What tools did you use to remove the dents in the caps? Care to elaborate on the process?

Thanks everyone!
I used a body hammer set, but instead of a dolly, I used a piece of 4x4 timber. Go slow, work the dent out from behind, leaving it a little proud. Then you can wet sand it smooth, graduating sandpaper grit to your desired level of polish. These are stainless, so I could use this process--can't sand chrome. They aren't perfect, but they look pretty good for the amount of time I have in them. Like anything, perfection takes time...
