Ok, recently ive stripped my car down and removed the gutter strips etc

I also removed teh door pins using a punch. now in doing so im not sure if i bent the metal where the gutter strips clip onto or if they are like that anyway.

either way i really want to get them bent back if they are out of shape before it gets painted.
