Icon5 1993 Ranger front bumper?

I was looking into doing a ranger splash valance on the front of my ranger but the front bumper is bent in on the drivers side.... I was told I could straighten it but I was also told I might have to buy a new bumper all together...?? Is there a way to straighten it or will it need to be replaced?

i have a 93 as well.. is it pushed in towards the truck??? haha i backed into a tree and pushed my rear bumper into my bed and a few days later i was pulling out a friend that got his truck high centered.. so he sat there and we hooked the chain to the end of my bumper and i GENTLY moved my truck forward thus pulling out the bumper again.. umm.. not sure what you could do.. you could try my method for a quick fix though... my front bumper is bent down on both sides, happens when someone hooks a chain to the middle of the bumper and pulls on ur truck.. but im just gonna build a custom one..i have the material to do it..

It looks like the guy hit a ditch or somthing cuz its the driverside corner its bent in under the fender I was thinking I could try lightly heating it and pull it out .
