I'd take it out of the car, warm it, and bend it back into the correct shape.

I think the proper repair involves a steamer, and a form that will let it settle back into the correct shape.
many of the cars I've gotten have had a sheet metal screw above the light to hold it in position. I have a steamer, and several of them to play with... I think I'll try it.
