Can it be done? It's possible. Trying to get alum. that's bent back to its original shape will require bending it more in a different direction as you won't be able to get the indent in a tube out.

allbrandauto did you install it yourself and if you did how hard was it?

[donn0128]

Probably not. About 200 dollars for arm and reflector

[2oldman]

you can try to straighten not sure if it'll work since that may be harder that it looks good luck

[allbrandauto]

talking about old arm would like to straighten as a spare instead of throwing away

[MrWizard]

If it works, why risk damaging it?
