Bent C-Beam - Return or try to fix it?

Hey guys!

I'm working on a 1000 x 750 C-beam build. I had my machine mostly together when I noticed that one of the 1000mm beams was pretty badly bent and may have been causing racking of the y gantry. I disassembled and laid the beam down on a marble countertop and measured the gap to be about .1050" which seems pretty significant to me. Is this something that occurs frequently? Will Openbuilds send me a replacement or am I going to have to try to fix it?

I would just ask the team myself...
