Fixing a dented exhaust tip

[ToXicXxX]

Hey guys, picked up a SS muffler for the M, and didn't realize one of the tips had a small dent in it. It's now bugging the hell out of me... Anyone have any idea how to fix it. SS doesn't sell replacement tips.

Please excuse how dirty they are, I haven't had a chance to polish them yet.

Can't see the pic (@work). But if it's on the very edge, I've been successful with putting a rag over the bend, and using plyiers to slowly bend and squeeze it back to shape.

Just tried this, it worked a bit. But because the tip is double wall rolled it's very strong at the edge and hard to bend out.

I may try using a c clamp and a chunk of wood sanded to the profile of the tip. Or a bit of heat. But I don't want to discolour it.

Here it is from a bit of a distance. Not really noticeable, but drives me insane. So much so I'm considering selling it and putting the dinan back on.

I was looking at how the tips are retained to the canister and it appears to be just a slip fit and a tack welded bracket holding the tips together. I emailed supersprint and have requested if there's any way they have spares I can buy. It looks like all I'd have to do is cut one tiny tack welded bracket to replace them.
