The after market a arms are not very easy to bend back with out further damaging them. This past weekend a guy was there that bent his back and broke it pretty bad in his first moto!!!!

most of the time stock a arms are pretty cheap, and bending the metal back will obviously make it a bit weaker and i dont think you want that hovering over your head when you do a jump, now do you.

hey i might have that arm that u neeand i have some parts of front fenders, like hood tank cover and sides that are race cut but they are a bit cracked so i dont think you would want the sides. the a arm doesnt have bushing but if yours are good you should be ok just pm me if you are interested im sure i could give them too you cheap if you pay shipping. sorry that may have been one of the arms i cut the ball joints off of when i was tryin to make a bumper but ill make sure later.
