Default New Delphi Radiator

Got a new radiator, but is has ome bent fins in the front from the phone popcorn stuff. I will take pictures to send to the vendor, but was thinking that most new radiators would have some bent fins from shipping. Should bother installing it?

If its not to bad just take a small screwdriver and run down the fins to set them back up straight, just sort of push them back up so air can get through them. I got a Delphi from thepartsladi and had the same thing but using the screwdriver got them looking right again..WW

Man, that is a good price. When I was at the dealer a month or so ago, I had them price me out a radiator. It was for over $300, I laughed and told them I could get it at half that price. Now I know where to get one if mine goes bad. I think it is old, but I'm not gonna replace it as I'm doing 100 other things right now.
