Use a hydraulic press and press it as straight as you can, then spray paint 
it a light color.  Check regularly, if you see cracks in the paint (the dark 
metal and light paint give good contrast), replace it, it's likely stressed 
and fatigued.

Remember to get the alignment checked for Toe-in, after straightening.
