most of you probably call it a boot. i call it a trunk....either way, my staff was in it when i totalled my car the other day (im ok thnaks for asking:) and now it is seriously warped...
does anybody know where i should look to have it straightened out (its aluminum)...like what kind of business (machien shop maybe? idont know) would have the right kinda tools...
or is it just hopeless....
thanks...

It's it's pipe... Good luck. I'd hand-straighten it as best I can, and leave it at that. Mine's always a little bit off. You get used to it pretty quick, it's not that bad. And you can't tell when you're spinning. If it's sollid... Couldn't help ya. Good luck!

Good to hear you're ok! I know how that is.

Bend it back by hand as best you can...and use it to lend to others i.e. get another one.
I go through about 4 staffs a year for performance purposes. It's not worth the wobble or lack of fireballs (burnoffs) when in front a big crowd.
When you think about it, it's pretty cheap entertainment to have a staff last 3-5 months when a two hour movie here in NZ costs $13!!!!
Don't worry about it, and get a new one...
