Warped MPC 70' Dodge Superbee
So I finally pony up the dough and get a model after ages of being stingy... And the gosh darned thing has a slight (noticable) warpage and one of the front pillars is a little bent out. Its warped enough that the chassy and interior tub wont fit properly, and the pillar is bent just enough that the top of the windowline on the side is noticably out of shape.
You guys know any ways I could save this model from a certain fate? I could return it, but Id feel really nasty to complain so much about what they would see as a tiny flaw

I have heard of (not tried) soaking the body in hot water or using a hair dryer to heat the offending area (or in this case I guess the whole body), bending it back to how it's meant to be, then dipping it in cold water. I'm sure there's a tutorial on it somewhere in the forum world, I just can't remember where.
Look forward to seeing some pics and progress, whatever you do with it
