New piece … need to order from dealer.
 
Can you take it off and pound out the dent from the inside? It will never look like new and best bet would be a new piece from dealer. A metal fab shop might be able to get it straighter, but I doubt it will look like new. Another option is to have a 3d part printed as replacement for both sides, but still might be more expensive.

I thought about taking it off, but there are two rivets on both sides so I would have to take those off somehow. Otherwise there are screws all the way around that would make it quite easy without the rivets. Thanks for the recommendations. I appreciate it.
 
The rivets are easy to remove. Just drill them out. Also easy to install with cheap rivet gun. Another option:
