Stamped basket so try a hammer, should be fine. Or mount it and use the screws to try and straighten it.

i bought it used from someone but it was definitely USPS fault. good thing its insured. if there are internal damages, imma file a claim. but if i could just hammer it out tor something with no damage internally, then i keep it

Good build quality, to bend not crack or snap

try screwing it into the box to straighten, not sure if thatd provide enuff strength might ned to try to screw it into a metal plate or something. Also, if its a metal basket (i guess it is?) it will lose strength bending it back, but i dont think thatd matter too much since subs are stationary hopefully it doesnt get brittle

ouch!! that would ruin my day. hopfully all it will take is sum hammering. id use a rubber maillot first to see if that would work might save it from dings or nasty scuffs. does it have any scrapping sounds right now the way it is, i hope it didnt pull the VC out of alignment. or bending it back might knock it out of alignment with the pole piece.
