I don't think I bent the ring, but yeah I don't think there is any way to put it back on. At least it was an extra caliper that already leaked anyway, and I only wasted about $40 on pads and rebuild...

Depending on what the car cost it might not be that crazy. It was probably worth about $6k before it caught on fire so if it can be gotten on the road for less than that it might not be too bad.

There are enough nice ones that get scrapped I dont think that one would be worth doing much with. If the interior is good some of that would be useful to someone though im sure.

I know, but its still ~$800+ for all the parts I would need. I did a complete brake job on my old Milano, and it wasnt too bad. I know how, I just can't afford if it needs everything.

Momo adapters aren't too hard to find for under $100, the nardi stuff (different bolt pattern, different horn, etc) is extremely expensive.
