Heat it up a little and bash it with a rubber mallet until it is back to shape. Beware though it will only just bend or break even easier next time so you might aswell buy a new one...

I bent mine about 1/2 inch down and 1/2 to the right.  I tried to bend it with a sledgehammer without luck. If you heat it you will burn the paint.  There are a lot of them on E-Bay.  You should be able to find one for 100-200 dollars.  I found one to match my '04 red for 199.00.   If you use Pay-Pal then you can dispute it if part is not as advertised.  Hope that helps.
