The metal on the bonnet is usually the most solid on the car, it's unlikely you will be able to take it out like you would a dent on a door.

Dent's generally don't pop unless you're extremely lucky. Metal stretches to form a dent, and has to be shrunk back to shape which is why the guys who do it take 30-45 minutes to do them properly.

On something old and jap/french/italian it might. That or a lump hammer from the opposite side...
