Bent corner fix price?
How much would it cost to repair a bent corner? The top right corner is bent and it doesn't close correctly, so the aluminum of the bent part touches the bottom right aluminum. I would like to know the price to fix this minimal damage.

It will be virtually impossible to repair that corner with no traces of the damage. It's bent on a compound curve so there will need to be some finesse with shaping the metal back to its original shape (or close enough to it) without scratching the crap out of the metal. No matter what you're going to have to take apart the display assembly.
There are tools that can assist in this -- for example, the PlierTek Corner and Sidewall Repair Pliers which iFixIt sells -- but they can be costly. There are YouTube videos showing people repairing bent corners with straight pliers wrapped in cloth, or with hammers and leather, and seeing mixed degrees of success.
Finding an independent shop to do this for you might be possible but not a lot of shops will do this; the labor cost will likely outweigh the cost of simply replacing the bent piece with a new one.
