Thanks for the suggestions. I was able to spend some time on it yesterday and it bends a lot easier than I thought it would. I was able to just straighten it some by hand and the backing has straightened up a lot. I need to get some nuts for the studs so I can bolt it down but it looks like it is going to survive without a major issues.

Bobs409- I know what you mean. I have no idea what it is out of because I bought it out of a truck but I need black anyway so I plan on dyeing this one. I thought about the repo but was affraid it would not fit correctly and would rather use original.

Thanks again, Todd
