It's fine, OP don't worry. If you can get it replaced, then why not, but I wouldn't make a fuss about it...it's not going to change a thing.

Steel doesn't lose its rigidity upon slight bending. It would piss me off too, but it's not useless now! Haha are you guys trying to scare the OP?

Just because it's underneath the car does not make it "OK" for it to be bashed up. That piece needs to be replaced. The visual damage doesn't even tell the half of it if they actually placed the entire ~1400 lb rear weight of the car upon that one point. |
