Bent the pins on the 3700 like an idiot

I put too much thermal paste and wanted to check if it was ok. While trying to remove the wraith prism color over it made it pop out of the slot. The pins are bent, but not broken. Would Micro Center or any place for that matter, entertain trying to bend them back in place, or would they recommend me getting a new one? I know it's possible to do it myself, but with my track record as of late, I feel a bit dubious at the prospect.
