Yes they will be able to straighten that out fine. My rear panel over the back wheel had the same thing happen to it. They straightened, buffed it out and then repainted it. That should be fairly easy for the dealership to do. Just make sure it a Nissan dealership or reputable body shop. The other thing that dealers will do ( i should say shady dealerships) is actually say that they replaced the panel, then just straighten out the old one, and then pocket that money. So even if you did request it, they might just fix the old one and say they replaced it.
