Is that powdercoat on the bent tube? If so I'd be concerned for the longer term as coming off in big sheets means it's not sticking to
the metal well enough and any water getting through a scratch/pinhole can rust silently underneath it. It will also make the repair more of a pain ;(
I'm planning to wire-brush back to a sound coating, then prime and paint. Hopefully that will be enough!

Not wanting to be down beat David, but after a similar incident in my Indy I thought I'd got away with a bent lower wishbone. On full
inspection, pretty much all the tubes on that front corner had some deformation. This took a steel rule to identify properly. In my case the damage
was very minor and a replacement wishbone was easily fitted. However the front geometry was thrown out quite significantly.
I'd strip it back and check very carefully for any further damage bfore starting repairs.
Same happened to my one
