Bed damage on the PS tail light housing thoughts?

[May70]

I bought this bed and the seller mentioned their was a dent above the tail light housing. Upon arrival the bed was stored upside down. I saw it upon purchase but apparently did not get a clear look. More than just a dent - the pillar seems to be bent in. Side of the bed does not appear to be impacted but the point above the tail light is definitely pushed in.

I have an aftermarket tailgate, tempted to just take this to someone to fix and gap my tailgate.

Anyone fixed something like this? I dont want to make it worse by taking my (lack of) skills at it.
