    How bad is it bent? You got a pic we can see?
    $1000 to FIX it or to replace it?
    I would talk to a body shop and see what they say and then after they fix it (if you go that route) reinforce it (see pic).

    But who knows, maybe you will get lucky and someone will have one laying around.
    Good luck!
