How do you fix a bent dash pad??

I have a dash pad that the cover is in good shape and is very usable. The problem is the metal backing is bent. I have not tried anything and looking for ideas before I try and damage the cover. I tried to get pictures of the bend but what is looks like is the stud still had a nut on it when the pad was being removed and the when pryed on the backing bent. The pad still fits the dash. Seems tight at the stud that is where the dip is and the it sticks up off of the dash where the raised part is. I thought this might be an easy fix but afraid of damaging the outer cover. Any ideas? I know I am not the first one with this problem but I could not find the answer in a search. If this needs to be in another catagory please move it. Thanks, Todd
