Body shops have various shaped clamps that can be clamped on the the seam you pushed up. They can clamp onto it and, using hydraulics, while supporting the rest of the car, pull it back down. It's not that hard to do but I don't know what your problem looks like or the severity. Cost? It's going to vary widely between shops so look around.

That is what I was hoping to hear. It is just a little tweak. A body panel fitment issue.

I have a hydraulic jack that takes about 5 secs to lift the car. I was using that instead of the manual jack that comes with the car and is under the driver seat.

I picked up the clips I needed today at the auto parts store. Everything is installed properly now.

The panel fit is only out about 3/4", I'm pretty sure I could bend it back myself, but at this point I'm just gonna let someone with experience do it.

I'll inquire at my next oil change. I can live with it till then. Its really not that bad as is.
