Just go to a junkyard and freeze your ass off while getting another one.

I'd replace it. If you are able to bend it back the structual integrity of it is already gone is will be at constant risk of bending, warping or snaping.

I don't know, but sliding into something & damaging the car doesn't sound fun to me.

voo doo is 100 percent right...you will never get it back to the exact same place it NEEDs to be in, Therfore your allignment will be way off ! , sure you can half ass it now & save a buck but you will spend more money replacing the worn out tires.
