That part of the metal on the car is very thin, see if you can pull it back by hand. I bent that part once on my car and was able to grab onto it and pull it back. It looks stronger than it is.

Mine was only pushed in a little bit, just so the door scraped, I got it pulled out and it looks just like original. If you want your door to clear, you can bend it enough to do that. It will be a temp fix until you can get it into the shop or have some time to do it correctly. It almost looks like someone sent a shopping cart flying into your car.

Sorry to see that bro, what a panzie 
to go runnin.
That hardly looks like enough damage to bend a frame of a car. It had to have been at a slow speed, maybe when the guy was pulling into a parking spot?

People that do that....ooooooooh... I envision all sorts of special tortures for people like that...
This raises a problem: if you DO find who did it, do you a) write down the plate info, try to confront them, report it to insurance? or b) bang the living *!@#&$ out of THEIR car. My brain says A, my hands, feet and heart say B.
Decisions, decisions...
