Has anybody had the piece of the body bent in between the hood release and the seat right where the bottom of the door hits the bottom of the car on the drivers side. I just spun out into a tree and my car is pretty messed up i have plpd and i was thinking that i could just have the body shop bend it back the best that they can. What do u guys think? What do u recomend doing.

You'll probably need a new rocker panel, it's not a big piece, just mounts with some fasteners to the body of the car. A buddy of mine's car was in a wreck, and his rocker panel has a tendency to come undone every 6 months or so, and the body shop has to tack it back on... bad juju...
