i have no idea how much it will cost, it all depends on how bad it is and what all they would have to replace

OP, you dont even wanna know how I bent mine (think non-paved area). But you should be able to just bend it back yourself. Got mine fixed thru insurance when I got hit.

Atleast you didnt smack your radiator on the concrete before you got that bracket replaced.
