Default Ideas on bent bow rail

Hi everyone

I have a bent row rail on my 2700SCR (from the previous owner) I know it's only aesthetic, but I would like to rectify it at some point. The rail appears higher on the port bow than the starboard bow side...you only notice it looking aft from the bow or from the helm looking forward.

Is there any easy way to correct a bend to towards one side? Or do I just have to take the whole thing off and have it bent back into place? Any ideas or experiences appreciated.

Cheers

Default bow rail

well..the only concern I would have is that the fitting screwed into the fiberglass might give way when you try and bend it back.....I think it might be worth it to take it off and try and find the parts that are bent..then either bend them back on the shop or have new ones made....if you try to rebend them back...they may do some damage to fiberglass.....
